The sun-worshiping ancient Egyptians had the right idea about the Sun being important to us. However I doubt they could imagine some of the implications of our relation to the Sun and how it influences our lives.
Because my schedule is always a huge mess I believed that adapting to the local conditions in Boston after traveling 8000 km west and crossing 7 meridians would be a breeze. After all, if you have a very irregular sleeping schedule, adjusting to a new sleeping schedule should not be a problem. I never experienced any kind of jet lag traveling to England! There should be no jet lag traveling to the US either! WRONG!!!
Five days ago, I was fighting my body's urge to shut down after being intensely sleep deprived for at least 3 days. The scene taking place at 9pm (4am Romanian time) in Harvard's Cafe Algiers saw me ranting deliriously as I was hallucinating about the waitress speaking Russian. It was baaad!
In the following days I finally adjusted ... just in time to come back.
Now I have to go through the whole thing again. Looking at my sleeping patterns in the past 72 hours, including the 17 hours of nearly-continuous sleep I had after I got back, it looks like I'm on the time zone for Samoa or the Cook Islands.
