Day 6: 7:00 am

Today is Saturday, a day that typically falls into the category of "weekend," often affiliated with the concept of not working.  Today was also day 2 of the Southwest Regional FLL Robotics tournament, which I have spent a great deal of energy and time helping out with.  Thus, for me, this particular Saturday was also affiliated with the concept of "work."

According to my preset goals, a work day requires a 6am wake up, and a non-work day requires an 8am wake up.  So, given the above conditions, and in honor of scientific accuracy during this robotics weekend, I decided to average the two times and wake up at 7:00am*.

It was really only one of those survival mornings, though.  You know, the type in which you simply wake up, get ready, and walk out the door.  And I think I'm ok with that.  I think I've just decided that on mornings that require an out-of-the-ordinary early start at work or travel, I don't mind having a survival mode morning. It's more valuable than compromising precious sleep time (which only lasted a few hours anyway).
