not so happy about ups losing my woofer in transit from fi...

that sux. i feel your pain

yeah man, and i didn't wanna pester nick anymore so i waited another week and a half before sending an email today asking where it was. turns out ups picked it up last Tuesday, i've been sitting here with my thumb up my keester waiting for a sub that's lost in the void.. going on a month now without my woofer.

[lee 2]

does it say where the last scan took place when you track it?

[lee 2]

I heard Elite XC closed their doors yesterday. Findings on rigging the fights and so on

[lee 2]

I'm out of here. it's like I can smell the aroma already

[seanbw 1]

does it say where the last scan took place when you track it?

it never got scanned, just said shipping info received so i assumed it was still on the line or being tested. i didn't want to be a nuisance so i was not pressing the issue, had i known it had left fi i would have been raising hell with ups already.

[lee 2]

if you just recieved the shipping label via e-mail from them, it hasn't been shipped yet

so are you saying to wake 15minutes before you should and or 90 minutes past?

no, that was just for a nap. sleep less than 15 total minutes, or longer than 90.

Answer me this, When I get 6 or more hours of sleep I always over sleep and feel tired when I wake up, not to mention I can barely wake up. Yet if I sleep 5 or less I feel much better and I get up faster.

To sum up, it's because of your sleep cycle. The grogginess and taking forever to truly wake up is a result of waking from the wrong stage of sleep. IIRC the normal person is on a 3 hour cycle, meaning it's best to get 3,6,or 9 hrs of sleep. but this varies hugely depending on the person.

btw you can google the sleep cycles and see the different stages, i think there's 4. been a while since i've had that class

There's actually a building nature on each sleep cycle, IIRC. I think it's like, for example, in your first cycle you have 90 minutes of stage 1-3 sleep, then 15 minutes of REM. Then on the next cycle, you maybe only have 80 minutes of stage 1-3 sleep, then 25 minutes of REM. It's something like that I believe. I just wish I could remember exactly. And I've always heard that you should sleep either less than 15 minutes or over 90. If you sleep under 15 minutes you don't get into deep sleep, which is when you feel groggy if you wake up in the middle of it. But after 90 minutes you've gone through a full cycle, and that's sort of a hump to go over in terms of waking alertness.

But I would agree, you're just waking up in the wrong stage. But I do have a question for you, and that is when you sleep less than 5 hours are you tired earlier at night? If so, then that 5 hours isn't enough for you. What you really need to do is sleep until you naturally wake up. Do that a couple nights in a row to make up any sleep debt you may have, and on the last night however much you sleep is how much sleep you probably need every night.

For me, I know I am getting enough sleep when I wake up naturally right before my alarm goes off. Actually I think it may just be that my internal clock is so good that it knows, and it hates the sound of my alarm as much as my conscious self does . But when I maybe cheat on getting to bed on time a couple nights in a row, I sleep until the alarm.

Yea, I actually get naturally tired pretty early, anywhere from 9-10:30 but my schedule is so full I end up staying up till around 2-3 every night and waking up at 7. Not enough hours in the day =\

When I go to sleep when I feel I need to I have much better days and I wake up alot easier and feeling way more aware. But when I have to always force my self to stay awake, I end up getting restless and not being able to sleep.

thats what i would think but why would nick email me this:

We'll find the tracking number, it was finished Tuesday of last week and

it went out. You should have gotten a tracking number from UPS Quantum

view as well...we'll figure out where it is at shortly.

[lee 2]

makes sense

[lee 2]

I always get the tracking # from ups via Fi within a week or so before I get the shippment

[Tmax98 3]

sry to hear about ur woofer man

and on sleeping terms i usually feel pretty awake when i get less sleep like 5 -6 hours

but my body really like 9-10 i believe

and i like long naps

[lee 2]

I think I'm good at 9hrs

[seanbw 1]

makes sense

i like this kid, but we may have to throw down

Back to my new Mag. The shipping that Mr. Lemons does is quite nice. There is absolutely nothing that I saw on the box to determine that is a subwoofer, comes in a appealing looking box with fold down top *inside the cardboard shipping box*, cutout diameter is on the box, well packed in closed cell foam, sub is in a cloth bag to keep it from getting scratched, mounting hardware is included. I won't be using the mounting hardware, it comes with screws and a drill bit for pilot holes, but damn they are some big arse screws, square drive head on them also. Everything about it seems like a quality product though, attractive looking sub too.

[topgun 262]

The only complaint I had was that the screws had broken out of their plastic bag and were rattling around inside the box, but other than that no problems. A test box should be made this weekend to throw in the basement and see what I think, 1 cube sealed with a pound of polyfill in it.

Finally found the movie Two Lane Blacktop at Hastings last night. First time I've found it in town here so I bought it.
