How should I organize my sleep?

Question

I want to wake up at 2:30am to watch the US-Spain gold medal basketball game but I probably have to wake up at 8 in the morning to head out for vacation to Cape Cod that same morning. I was planning on sleeping at 9am,but I want to watch the volleyball game at midnight too. What time should I sleep to watch the events?

Answer 1

Get control of your LIFE!!!!

Answer 2

Tape the events the night before and take the video tape with you to watch at Cape Cod.

Or go to sleep at 7.30pm and wake up at 12am, then have a break before you continue to watch at 2.30am.  

If you are the driver of the car I would suggest that you do the first tip.

Answer 3

You must have a cable box, no? Most boxes now let you set recordings. If not get one from the cable company. Depending on where you are going you could also record other shows you want to watch and bring the box, and all the wires you will need with you (just don't lose it!)

You didn't say how long of a ride you have. Check in's aren't usually until the afternoon and you don't have to be there exactly at check in. Maybe you could sleep in...
