# Sleep — 2026-08-09
**4h 33min** · 05:12→09:45 · REM: 24% · Deep: 29% · HRV: **29ms** 🔴 · Resting HR: 72 bpm · Score: 74/100
> The 5am drinking night (Sat night → Sun morning). Bed at 05:12, up at 09:45 — 4h33min, less than half the reference range. **HRV at 29ms is the lowest ever recorded — by a wide margin** (previous worst: 71ms on the Jul 8 heavy drinking night). Resting HR at 72 bpm is 23 bpm above the 48-59 personal range. This is the classic alcohol-hangover cardiovascular signature: sympathetic overdrive, body still processing the night's intake through the measured window.
>
> Paradoxically, the sleep *structure* for the hours logged was normal: REM 24% (1h 5min), deep 29% (1h 20min), light 47%, 0 wake-ups, breathing quality 100, SpO2 98%. The body packed a structurally fine 4.5h — there just wasn't nearly enough of it, and the cardiovascular system was clearly hammered (HRV 29ms, HR 72).
>
> Score 74 / better than 33% — the watch called it below-average, and the HRV/HR pair is the loudest warning signal in Gutca's entire sleep history. This is what a 5am drinking night costs.
