A Strange Night

Good morning! =)

It’s December 3rd 2011 already! So I decided yesterday to get back into the habit of blogging on a more regular and localized basis. Over the last couple years I’ve learned so much and started so many different projects that I kind of stopped doing what worked in the first place. What I mean by “what worked”, I mean what has allowed me to live the life I have right now. I realized it really all came down to the consistency I had in creating and sharing my personal video blogs and of course writing entries.

I got myself so stuff on SEO crap that I for some reason got it engrained in my head that I ALWAYS had to write perfect SEO style posts. Guess what that led too. NOTHING! I was writing nothing at all because trying to build content around keywords just sucks. It’s not a natural way of writing. So, here I am back at it again with all my bad grammar, dry humor, and a dash of sarcasm =). Feels good to be back and keeping this simple.

Wow, did I mention I ramble even when I type? lol

Last night was a strange night for really only one particular reason. I went to bed at 10p as I have been for the last couple weeks with the aim at waking up around 6a to start my day. Cool, nothing out of the ordinary there. Here is what I found kind of strange. I went to bed relatively tired and so I don’t think I lasted more than 5 minutes before passing out. Suddenly, I find myself waking from a pretty intense and colorful dream to find it is around 12 (midnight). So I got up to go pee and replied to a text quickly (had to check on the business cause this is just an exciting week =D ). Then I returned to sleep.

Guess what, another lapse in consciousness and I woke again after another vivid dream sequence. Looking at my clock I see it’s 2a. So, I got up to go pee and pretty much repeated the process.

Hmm ok now this is just crazy… It’s 4a and I wake AGAIN after ANOTHER vivid dream sequence though this time I just kind of laughed a little and went right back to sleep.

Finally, one more time I wake naturally after some weird dream where I am part of a production crew filming Tony Horton LIVE as he unboxes a wooden crate filled with P9oX2 Ultimate (think I am a little excited?). There was more to the dream but I know my fellow coaches and P90X’rs will get a kick out of that. It was like I was really there holding a shoulder camera and filming one of the angles. Crazy stuff. Btw, this time it was about 5:45a and I decided hell with it, I am getting out of bed! I usually get up and start moving at 6 anyway.

So that’s it, not the dream but the fact that I woke naturally every 2 hours on the dot. I feel quite rested yet though I obviously slept very light. Most humans go through dream cycles every night though usually the first half of the night is filled with deep sleep and little REM. I apparently had an entire night of REM and woke up at the end of 2 dream cycle (to my understanding out sleep cycle is roughly every 45-90 minutes).

Just strange to me it was every 2 hours and every time I was coming out of REM. Well, I suppose I am only assuming it was REM because it was at the end of a sleep cycle and I woke naturally, not abruptly.

Ok, I am done sharing! It’s about 8a now which means it’s time to get my fitness on! Today is Insanity Pure Cardio! Dig Deep!

Do what it takes!
