1. Take one overnight flight and one early morning flight in a 6-day period, crossing at least three time zones.
2. Get six hours of sleep each night during every night of your visit to the alternate time zone.
3. Include "wedding," "trip to amusement park," and "multiple hospital visits," in your time-zone crossing to-do list.
3. Arrive back to your original time zone completely exhausted with 7 more hours of daylight ahead of you.
4. Force yourself to stay conscious until dark.
5. Fill the vacant zombie-like hours with Fox's "So you think you can dance."
6. Cheer loudly for Benji, the Mormon swing dancer.
7. Go to sleep at normal bedtime and wake up at normal wake up time.
8. Ingest half a pot of coffee.
9. When your boss drinks the other half of your pot and you still want more coffee, make another pot just for you and drink it too.
10. During every mid-day zone-out, patiently pause for a moment and then turn back to your to-do list, completing reviewing it, and reminding yourself that the world needs you to do your job.
11. Eagerly anticipate your next bed time, which will be at your normal hour, or else.
12. Eagerly anticipate tomorrow, when jet lag will be a quiet memory.
