I'm a late afternoon and night owl... I up by 4.45 am to get ready for work, but don't get on the home puter until 5.00PM and stay up until late at night...
When I turn my computer on in the mornings, I always have lots to read. Seems like we have a lot of night owls (elfyum) here, but I'm not naming (elfyum) any names. Just wondering--any other morning people or am I the only one?
Just a quick poll.
Hey grammy! You talkin to ME?!
Well I'm up in the AM! Sunrise is a nice time! (to go to bed! )
I like to go to bed around 5/6, although it ends up more like 7/8 when I'm not working...
And I like to get up around 3:30, though I might wake a little earlier (like 3 ) if I went to bed at the earlier end of the morn...
Sometimes I sleep til 4+ if I went to bed at the later end of the morn...
And I HATE waking to an alarm! I'm considering doing an overnight shift...I think that will work for me.
I've avoided it since that's MY TIME so I wouldn't want to be at work, but it pays more & I'm up anyway, wouldn't need an alarm, would NEVER have traffic (not that I do/did anyway) & my love works crazy hours too so I'd actually be home when he's home! -groggy, but home! (His hours are 4AM to 3/4PM )
I am a TRUE "night owl" indeed!
I can often tell that just when I'm getting on these boards, you're getting off to go to bed. I've worked third shifts before and they always killed me. I don't know how you do it. I could never get used to sleeping during the daylight.
Hey Grammy, you really do get up early, do you go to bed early too?? I would have to if I got up that early!
I don't think it's early--usually about 10:00.
I started getting up around 4 in the morning when I was working. I'm slow to wake up and like having that quiet time in the morning. First thing I do is make coffee, then I turn on my computer.
I second that...computer's on most of the time (I only shut it when I'm actually walking off to bed) so I can check throughout the day....that's a very bad thing.

I do the exact same thing. That way if I have a question about something during the day, or get a little bored or whatever, I just hop right over and am connected. I rely on the computer too much.
I have mine in the hallway/office. I have DSL so it is always willing and able. When I am walking past I will hit the email key then check it on the walk back. I hate this thing!!
I'm a night owl and do most of internet stuff late at night. Even though I have to get up at 6:30 AM during the week to get the kids to school. Needless to say, I often take a nap during the day.
