Naps in the car, table, etc. The main objective is to not sleep lying down, anyway that can be accomplished is good. The three clocks are 1- regular alarm clock, 2- computer alarm clock (I'm on a Mac so I'm using <a href="http://www.robbiehanson.com/alarmclock/" rel="nofollow">Alarm Clock 2</a>), and 3- the "throw-away" clock I described (wireless alarm clock I tricked out). The trick with the computer alarm is to make your display sleep after 20 min of in-activity. Then, since alarm clock 2 still runs with a sleeping display, when it does go off 30 min later you're forced to enter your login name/password. This works out for me, and I don't plan to make this unrealistic (for those who want to try this someday and use this 'series' as an example) by setting up an even more elaborate system. Alarm Clock 2 allows you to schedule alarms so I have 8 alarms scheduled (one alarm before and after each nap). I suggest you use your music library to make each alarm different, listening to the same alarm buzzer can make you unconsciously drown it out.

I considering this whole thing myself, and it's great to see your second week isn't nearly as bad as the first! However, I would like more detail on some points. You mentioned not sleeping in the bed anymore; where do you sleep now? You also mentioned you have three alarm clocks, what kinds do you have? What sort of alarm/password system do you use for your computer? Really good ideas! I’m really liking these updates!
