Thought I was over it easy after my Saturday flight and Sunday rest -- then the headache from hell arrived on Monday...

waking up with a splitting headache, how is it not awesome?

Means that I wake up on time for work for at least a few weeks.

I actually like being awake at night, you can read and listen to music quietly. The hard part is the afternoon when you pass out in front of clients :(

I compare jet lag offsets to semitones. Flying to Asia from DC and being 10-13 hours off is fine. Flying to Europe and being 5-7 hours off is brutal. 3 hours is trivia, which doesn't hold up the analogy, I guess.

had the worst jetlag of my life last week, after a 30 hour flight (including connections) from South India. bolt upright at 5am, at 2pm i would hit a wall of exhaustion and it took all my effort not to crash at work, then in bed by 7-8 pm. took 3 full days to shake it off

I can't believe you only took 3 days for that. how long were you over?

your cognitive privilege (El Tomboto), Monday, 15 May 2017 01:06 (six years ago) link

2 weeks

flopson, Monday, 15 May 2017 01:27 (six years ago) link

i may still have been jet lagged on Saturday, couldn't really tell. got back Tuesday late afternoon so really 4 days

flopson, Monday, 15 May 2017 01:29 (six years ago) link

I also somehow didn't get 'tlagged on the way there? that way we flew direct, 20 hours

flopson, Monday, 15 May 2017 01:30 (six years ago) link

that's my experience too, flying west across the pacific and having the time be basically the opposite of whatever time it is at home is like, whatever!

this is interesting tbh

not sure i dong prefer it to my normal state, in which i almost never feel that ive had enough sleep (nb this feeling would be 100% correct)

it genuinely feels like i fell into the back of the time/space couch tho, its not just a sleep thing. totally displaced. are there drugs i should try while my mind is this open?

because of the dong
