			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is yet another polyphasic-sleep blog. Why? Because there&#8217;s still too little information out there, and too small a signal:noise ratio.</p>
<p>Starting today, I will be adopting a modified Uberman pattern &#8211; 20-minute naps every six hours, for a total of eighty minutes of sleep per 24 hours.</p>
<p>Aiming to keep this as single-purpose and bullshit-free as I can, but hoping to update frequently and give a full account of my attempt.</p>
<p>Before I start, a bit about my current patterns/habits:</p>
<p>My sleep is very very irregular at the moment. I generally sleep about 18 hours a week, but spread out pretty much randomly, so a pattern is hard to detect. I won&#8217;t be sleeping that much less than I was, but no more quadruple-allnighters.</p>
<p>I chose (or rather adapted) this pattern because it&#8217;s the only one I can think of that will fit in with my school&#8217;s schedule. Planned naptimes at the moment are 0530, 1130, 1730 and 2330. Even so, this will involve sleeping in some weird places, which in itself will take a lot of getting used to.</p>
<p>So, here goes. :cheers:</p>
