I just heard that if you sleep for 15 minutes every hour for two weeks, you'll be able to go directly into REM cycles afterwards. Anybody hear anything about these sleep patterns?

That would involve me doing some extensive drinking or medication.

This won't work for me.

A. Because I have this thing called a job and don't live at home and jerk around an internet forum all day.

B. It takes me an hour to get to sleep.

Just have a cabinetmaker build a cubby under your desk.

But make sure you use a digital clock!

Do what I did. Sit really far back in chair with head leaning on chair. That way, when you slump over, you don't actually slump too far to be seen:). Oh, and try to look towards a wall.

It wouldn't if you only slept for 15 mins every hour for days.

I have zero trouble falling asleep. Haven't for years, I'm completely out within 3 minutes of laying down. This isn't good for meetings, though.

Oh hah. Like my narcoleptic friend in meetings. And how hard I tried not to laugh when he started to snore right next to me.
