Tick tock
I could not get to sleep last night until nearly 5 am. Fortunately, I could stay in bed until 11 before finally dragging my sleepy ass to the shower, but this does not bode well for the re-setting of my body clock for back to school.
I remember reading years ago that as we age, we need less sleep.
Ha.
I am a 9-10 hour a night girl. Always have been. And if my age process is any sign, I will remain so until the day I die. I am also a bit of a night owl. When my body is left to its own devices (you know, during those periods of unemployment and all) it naturally sets its clock to bed at about 1 and rise about 10. Because I spend so much time on the boat during the summer, lately I am off to bed just after 11 and out of it at 8:30. Shifting to my school schedule of waking at 6:30 is a real struggle.
I just hope I can turn off my brain tonight and actually get some rest.

I'm just like you. Nine hours seems to be just what I need!
My work schedule is changing next week and I'm going to have to be in the office twos hour earlier than usual anywhere between one to four days a week (depending on the week). It makes me sick to think about it.
I hope it worked for you! I reset my sleep clock every weekend so that I can spend time with Fred when we're both actually awake. Five fifteen comes a lot earlier on Monday mornings than on any other day of the week.
Me, too! I'm totally on that schedule. There seems to be a lot of us. We should revolt, and change the work day to suit ourselves.
I, too, do best with about 9 hours.
Can we talk about the depth of the dark cirlces that have been growing under my eyes over the past four months? It's not pretty.
Anyway... good luck with adjusting to waking at assthirty in the morn!
Yeah, count me in too.
9 hours...pffft. I think about 12 hours is more like it. [grin]
