Sleep Variations

I’m a graphs nerd I’ve come to find out.  I like to see things rather than read them.  I want to see visually how something is changing or not changing rather than just hearing about it.  So, I got this thing called a FitBit a while back that does just that.  It sort of stalks me.  I wear it all the time and it basically tracks all my activity and even sleep.  How awesome is that?

So obviously being on the road there are some pretty drastic changes between road sleep and home sleep, but I’ve never actually been able to track it… until FitBit.  Check this out.  The first chart is bus sleep from the other night.  I don’t think I need to explain what’s happening on there.  It’s pink and blue… with some numbers… check it out.

And here’s home sleep last night.  All of the sudden it makes a lot of sense why there are times when we are all wandering around a venue looking like a deer in headlights.  I “woke up” 53 times on the bus and only 12 at home?  Now, I’m not sure what this thing classifies as “waking up” but talk about a drastic difference eh?

How’s your sleep?

Home, But Not Home

So, I’m currently sitting on the bus, underneath the Sommet Center in Downtown Nashville.  Today the MercyMe guys and the David Crowder Band are are playing at a Youth Specialties event.  Then later tonight MercyMe guys are playing two songs on at the Grand Ole’ Opry.  So what does this all mean for me?  That means I am home, but I’m not home.  I’m in town so there’s a chance that I will run into people I know, but I don’t get to hang out with my family all that much.

I will get a chance to grab some dinner with Kristin and the boys tonight before heading to Ohio tonight.  All in all a pretty low-key day.  At least someone bought Ironman for the bus last night, I’ve never seen it.
