Yoz Grahame's Cheerleader: This is your brain on sleep

May 09, 2003

This is your brain on sleep

Something scary that I noticed during a short waking period in the middle of the night: When still half-asleep and short of energy, my brain isn't capable of handling certain concepts; most notably, differentiating between virtual objects (data) and real things. I realised this because, in the usual random churning, my brain came up with the idea of downloading Southend-on-Sea via my web browser. Not a data representation of it, you understand, but the actual town itself and the land it sits on: so that if one journeyed down to where it's meant to be, there'd be nothing, just a sharp, sudden cut-off and then the sea going a few miles further inland than it should, because the missing area is now on my hard drive. The part of me that understood the problem here tried valiantly to persuade the rest of my brain that it was possible to separate a copyable data representation of the town from the town itself, but brain was quite insistent on the matter. (Don't worry, it's happened before. Or maybe worry more.)

Thus ends my Webb-baiting for the moment. I should keep quiet about things like this, shouldn't I?

It would be fab if you could just upload me from Southend tomorrow. Would save all that mucking around with trains. Mind you, my sister's machine here only has a 33.6 modem, so the train may be quicker.

Hmmm. I think the same night you had that dream, I woke up having just disembowled two bottles of Listerine which somehow represented some kids who were causing trouble outside my family's Southend residence.

Nurse? Nurse....

P.S. You promised me you would fix the atrocious formatting on this page. Here's a horizontal line. I can do you a deal if you want them in bulk....

Nice fact but try twenty to thirty minutes of exercise every day can help you sleep, but be sure to exercise in the morning or afternoon. Exercise stimulates the body and aerobic activity before bedtime may make falling asleep more difficult.
