A lot of people I know go back and forth to India regularly (~12 hour time difference) and they're fucked up for days. I'm definitely going to try this the next time I screw up my sleep schedule with work all-nighters. | ||

It literally means you fall behind everyone else. That is, when they're going to sleep you're still awake, when they're awake you're going to sleep etc. etc. So you "fall behind" the "normal" sleeping pattern of where you're staying. Jetlag is awful coz you'll step off a plane and then for a whole week you're watching night television coz you can't fall asleep. Then when everyone's keen to do things in the morning you're going to bed. This is the extreme case but, that's what "jetlag" is. The sleeping pattern difference caused by change of timezone. EDIT: For my own story, I actually kept eating! I was flying from Sydney to Chicago (stopping over in SF) and the flight boarded at 6pm-ish. So I ate all day (breakfast, lunch and dinner in Sydney), boarded the plane and did the same (19 hr direct flight to SF), got off at SF, had McDonalds, boarded the plane to Chicago, ate on that plane, got off, ate at my cousin's place when I got there... what did all this result in? In the longest most epic single-piece sh*t I've ever had. I think I shat the entire length of my colon. Try it sometime, or not. Think about it this way, HOWWWWWW SATISFYING IS THAT SH*T GONNA BE!!!!!??? I tell you what, the feeling alone was worth it! | ||
