gee really... really???

After staying up till 5am today writing a grant that's all about the negative health consequences of being up at night, what do I see today from Gizmodo's working-the-night-shift-is-hazardous-to-your-health page?



A picture of Yuki and Kyo (they sure do look exactly like my cats, even in mannorism), who did indeed stay up all night with me being unhealthy. But wait... cats are nocturnal, so it's ok. But wait, a single night time light exposure results in days and days and days of circadian disruption. According to my grant, even if we go right back to a good sleep schedule (and supposedly good light dark cycles), its still weeks and weeks before our rhythm goes back to normal. And yes, my grant is very convincing with preliminary data and all, so you better watch out when I do the actual experiment!
