My husband actually naps at lunch in his car, but that's just a quick 45 minute refresher and tends to make him sluggish during the second half of his work day as his body "wakes up"...

I usually try to sleep more on the weekends anyway. So, this schedule as a M-F thing might work out pretty nicely. :) Hey Andrew, I’ve found that skipping days isn’t so bad.

I agree with everything you've said here. I went bi-phasic for a stretch last year but ended up breaking it when I moved to NY (and in with my fiancee.) But I totally hate that tired feeling when I get home from working for The Man and want to be able to be productive at night. Only issue I see is on weekends the 8-11pm block is pretty prime time. Hope it goes well! Ugh. I agree with everything you’ve said here. I went bi-phasic for a stretch last year but ended up breaking it when I moved to NY (and in with my fiancee.)
