"There isn't anything that takes up that much time outside of work unless you count sleeping (and god damn what I would give to cut that out of my daily schedule)" Actually I wonder if it would make as significant a difference as you'd expect, or even at all. Reminds me of those school research projects where I'd have 2 months to do the project, do nothing at all except worry a bit for the major portion of the time then do everything in the last 2 days and get a decent grade. I wouldn't have done better or worse if I had been given 1 week or 4 months instead.
