Lol this is the face my therapist made when I mentioned that my natural sleep cycle (circadian rhythm?) doesn’t quite align with 24 hour days and drifts over time, so I occasionally I do what I call a “sleep leap day” where I pull an all-nighter and continue through the next day to ‘reset’ it.

The alt text on that strip seems especially pertinent

Wait other people do that too? I usually just did it before vacation/weekends ended to bring me back to the normal routine

I figured I want some in doing that, but anyone I’ve told about it seemed to think I was nuts. My original inspiration for it was a piece of advice for jet lag- to stay up until it is a good bedtime for your destination, even if you are tired.

Do you perhaps live in a cave?

I did this every summer right before school started from the end of middle school through, basically the end of college if I wasn’t working.

This is proof that you have Martian DNA, on Mars a day lasts 24 hrs 35 minutes, millions of years of evolution on that daylength means that approximately every 36 days your biological clock skips a day. Or every 18 days, your biological clock is fully inverted from Martian “Normal”
This is why you feel overwhelmingly tired on an 18 day cycle, your body is fighting millions of years of evolution to adhere to the accursed Earth day. The only solution is to go back to Mars, then we will feel better.
(This is my coping mechanism)
