It's 4:30 a.m., what's for dinner?

I am Queen of the Jet Lag this week. At the mercy of the 12 hour time difference.

I crawled into the bath tub with my book about 7 p.m. last night and woke up as the pages were going under. Thank God for the quick save.

A recent study in hamsters showed that sildenafil (known commercially as Viagra) aided in a 50% faster recovery from shifts comparable to eastward travel experienced by humans and was effective starting at low doses.However, this use has not been tested in humans and is considered an off-label use by the drug's manufacturers.

I'm holding off on the Viagra for a bit.

I eked out an extra half hour of sleep from yesterday, though, so I figure I'll be sleeping through the night by the weekend.
