The Creative Mind and sleep deprivation

When I get tired, I get PUNCHY. I also get quicker with my non sequitur and tangential 'improv' thinking. I assure you, dear reader, that there is no shortage of noise, but there are also some eurekas that occur in this mind phase that do not occur as often when in a focused 'work' phase.

Of course, it's possible that the perceived value of the output of the phase is affected by the accuracy of the perception itself.
