Bed Times

I naturally am a night person. You probably will find me useless if you wanted me to do something in the morning. I always claim that the morning is for sleeping, and that the best time to be up is at night. That's when everything is usually happening anyway! I have proof, Star Trek is on every weeknight at 12:30am. That's how I live it up!

I've gotten so used to being a night person that whenever I have to wake up early for something, I usually fail. I have turned off my alarm many times without me even realizing it until it's too late. I have missed many deadlines and appointments because I am not a morning person.

Last night I tried to sleep at midnight because I knew that I had something to do in the morning. I don't even remember the last time I slept at midnight. I must have been 12 at the time.

It was terrible. I ended up staying in bed for 4 hours. I don't even sleep at 4am usually, but for some reason I couldn't sleep last night. Whenever I try to will myself to sleep, I somehow make it worse and end up sleeping even later. I don't know what it is. It's like my body won't sleep if it knows it has to wake up in a few hours.

I woke up with 1 hour of sleep yesterday morning, and nearly died. It was terrible. I was tired. I was grumpy. I was confused, and wouldn't have been able to tell you my name. The only reason why I woke up was because my mother was hovering around my bed. I had told her the night before to wake me up at no cost. I had to make it to work, and needed her to get me up.

I'm hopeless. Sad, but true. On a positive note, I did end up getting up.

I've always wanted a 9 to 5 job, but I can't even imagine waking up at the hour. I tried to fix my sleeping pattern, but I apparently failed somewhere along the line.

Well, I realize that the failure is because I don't actually go to sleep early. Minor details, minor details...
