Am a morning lark. Am up by 4 or 5am.
@PraiseXenu Sunsets look the same, just on the other side. ☺
@PraiseXenu We will have to agree to disagree. It is the early worm that gets eaten by the bird. ☺

If I had my way I'd go to bed at 9:30 and wake up at 8. But alas, my body doesn't understand the concept of sleep which means it does whatever it wants. Mostly I try to go to bed around 10. On a good night I fall asleep around 12 but wake up around 3 or 4 am. Then I'm up until about 6. My best sleep is between 7am and 10am. But that doesn't work for my job...
Ive been trying different cannabis blends for insomnia...It helps alot
If I am still awake after 10 p.m. I am either having a night of insomnia I got carried away reading a book. I'm up at 5:30 for walking with friends. I need my sleep I am an old woman
Gee, you are not old... I am battling not to say you are adorable (that's what you are) because saying that might be borderline creepy and Henry does not want to be creepy ?
You certainly don't look like an old woman Amelie!
Night owl... my entire family is. It sucks that my boss demands 8-5 working hours as the nature of the work does not demand it. My most productive hours are after 3PM. Earlier requires caffeine.
i'm the same!
No vote, I don't dissapear during the day or during the night. I can sleep during daylight, and be awake during total darkness. My nickname in Crete, Greece was "Nighthawk". Can go days without sleeping if given the proper motivation and yet can have 10 sleeping sessions in a 24 hour period. I am a Person 24 hours a day and 24 hours a night.
I wish I was a person 24 hours a day. Unfortunately I am a grumpy ogre for part of it.
I have been a night shift worker for the past 4 years. Basically I am a vampire.
Lol that reminds me. I co-wrote a tune called Vampire Life a long time ago. The last line of the chorus was "Sleep all day... And stay up all night." I need to dig that back out from the depths, if I remember it.
My default setting is owl, but it's hard to get any adulting done that way, so I have to say both, altho I'd love to just have vampire hours.
I'm very envious of true "day people" and wish I could be one. . . At best my schedule rotates.
I'm in the same boat.
I think I'm with you in the sense that I#d have a fourth optio - I'm neither - just as likly to be pants in the morning as I am at night- but hey that's fibro for you.
I know someone else who has fibromyalgia and they suffer terribly. Sorry you have that.
I'm naturally a night person - I feel happier, more alive and more creative when it's dark (the difference is noticeable even on overcast days compared to bright days). However, due to life, I have to be a day person, which is probably why I feel exhausted and only half-alive most of the time.
I'm the type of guy that has trouble waking up, and also trouble falling asleep... so definitely a night person. My body makes no sense to me.
Sadly I'm both.
In 1991 I hired on with a RR, which of course is a 24/7/365 operation... and many jobs are union. Which means seniority rules. So I started working midnights, thay way I could spend afternoons with my daywalker spouse!
I worked midnights for well ovee 20 years. A few years ago it was like my body got tired of sleeping in the daytime. So now I had scads of seniority and a little over a year ago I bid a dayshift/weekends off job!! Totally freaked out everyone in the office, but I had to do it.
I definitely sleep better now. But I am still stunned by how damn bright the sun is around noon!
I'm a person who doesn't like to go to bed, however loves to sleep. When I worked night shifts I'd still stay up too late. I think I need to spend a couple of weeks in the woods with no electricity to reset my internal clock.
i just feel more comfortable in my own skin after dark. always have
Nothing more beautiful to me in nature than watching the sun rise over an huge expanse of water.
