Are you a night person ?

[Halcyon]

Are you a night person ?
Or in other words.....are you an owl as owls love the night.
I've met some people who go to bed really early and this is accross a wide age range, both young and old, whilst others don't go to bed until the early hours of the morning.

I seem to love the night and going to bed at any time around 9pm or 10pm would be disrupting for me.
I just find the night peaceful and I can relax in front of movie, go out with friends and chill out, go out clubbing, or browse the forums.
Whatever it is, I just feel like my day isnt over and the night is like a great extension to the day.

Sometimes there will be one day in the week where I will feel tired but I just think of it that on Saturday I will have a nice long sleep and catch up.

I guess Im not going to bed too later most nights...mostly 1am to 2am but that changes if I go out, so variations all along the week, but constantly after midnight. I cant remember the last time I went to sleep before 12.

So what are you ?
Do you go to bed early and wake up early ?
Do you stay up until the early hours ?

Normall am up for about 10am, and go bed about 2-3am depends on time of year and how the central heating is working.

[luftys]

I start work at 6:45am but still stay up till 12pm or 1 am talking on the puter

When Iam going up North,which I do a lot,am up till 2am or 3am If I get home at 3am I still have to be at work 6:45

It all depends on who is with me,

Up at 8:30am on work days, 10am at weekends - normally go to bed about 2am on work days and 3am at weekends.

I don't work shifts, any more, but I was once late for a 1400-2200

now I get up at 0715, during the week, but never seem to get to bed before midnight.

weekends, I am not usually up till after 1000 - and bedtime varies, but not usually much later than 0300

I work nights so I am definately an Owl.

On my nights off, going to bed at 2am is considered an early night for me.

gf is a true non sleeper apart from when she is ill or weak due to her disablity, but I have known her do 48hour stints on a chat room to keep it family safe.

Some of you people are up for work very early..how you do it?

[iadom]

Actually, up at 6.50 six days a week and on my first call for 7.30 am. I can stay up till the wee small hours or go to bed before 10.30 pm. I find that I often come awake again after 1.00pm.

A hard game of squash or a good bottle of wine can make me a little tired sometimes.
I used to work full time on a farm for the first 6 years of my working life, up at 6.30am, 7 days a week, so early rising is no problem to me, no matter how late I retire.

an angel arrives with my dressing gown & when I stumble into 'my' room & turn on the PC I find a cup of tea & a biscuit has appeared on my desk, by magic

tea - biscuit - shower - dress - cycle to work - sometimes I'm even nearly awake, when I get there

[Halcyon]

So the trend seems to indicate quite a few night people, even though they have work in the morning.
I guess fruit is responsable for helping me keep awake at night. I normally eat lots of fruit and I think something in that keeps me from falling asleep.

As for mornings, I really hate them as Im always late and want to leave the alarm clock another 10 minutes which makes everything else a big rush.

As for the night, I'm in the roof and often its lovely to just look out at the night and over the town from above. Its as if the world has stopped sometimes.

And as someone mentioned in this thread, getting a good drink and a good CD or movie is rather nice and relaxing.
