There is something about writing in particular, at 5am when it's completely quiet, that feels magical. (OK, not all the time).

I used to be that way, but as I get older I find that I have a hard time sleeping in no matter when I go to bed. I was up til 2:30 a.m. Last night and was still up by 7:30 this morning. <br /><br />Looking forward to all the controversial stuff.

As my kids say, we're middle of the day people. Even in my younger years I preferred hitting sleep-time between 11 and midnight, although I did stay up dancing until 2 in the morning a number of times in my 20s. Then I married an early riser who doesn't even seem to think that he's an early riser - but who else would sign up to ride a van pool at 6:15 a.m.? That means waking by 5:45 at the latest. And with the exception of days where I just couldn't sleep the night before, or if I've been sick, I'm usually up by 6:10 . . .to give him a hug goodbye. So, then I'm awake, and I start blogging, writing, exercising, praying, until my kids get up. Sometimes I wonder if my comments are even coherent, but I just keep going anyway.Tyrean Martinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15356604721537744361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-238481189278119116.post-30068299572278497772013-01-17T20:40:28.649+08:002013-01-17T20:40:28.649+08:00I used to work third shift, so I was definitely a ...I used to work third shift, so I was definitely a night owl.

I tell everyone that I am fortunate enough to have been given a 200-year life span, and I intend to sleep the second hundred.

I've always been a night owl, as well. My mom thinks she ruined me because she worked nights when she was pregnant with me (bartender), and then I grew up hanging out at the movie theater and going out to eat at Denny's after it closed (waaaaay late), etc. I do love the night, though, so much.

Then I started getting used to waking up early and that became a habit. Now if I can sleep until 6 or 6:30 I consider that quite a luxury. Mornings can be nice in many ways. But so can sleeping in.<br /><br /> Lee<br /><a href="http://tossingitout.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Tossing It Out</a><br /><br /><br />Arlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-238481189278119116.post-5054419792618821222013-01-16T13:52:53.080+08:002013-01-16T13:52:53.080+08:00I'd get rid of mornings and skip straight to a...I'd get rid of mornings and skip straight to afternoons, except then I'd hate afternoons.<br /><br />......dholedolorahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08715849844092553699noreply@blogger.com
