Why put off today what you can ignore altogether:rolleyes:

Re: Night owl vs Early bird
 

My body clock is totally out of sync.
It is all to do with seratonin and melatonin production in my body.
In the past year I have gone from a sleep cycle of-
2hours sleep and 2hours awake, to
sleeping 3 chunks of 6hrs, 2hrs, 1hr.
I don't mind when I sleep as long as it can be one chunk of 7 or 8 (please)

Re: Night owl vs Early bird
 

ive always been a early bird.

Re: Night owl vs Early bird
 

How do you describe going to sleep at 12.30am and getting up at 4.40am? That is what I did last night and by the look of it will do again tonight.

I also woke up with a 3 year old monster in bed and have no recollection of her appearing.

UMMMM Im with the early birds.

Re: Night owl vs Early bird
 

I don't do mornings unless I have been up all night. They should be banned.

Re: Night owl vs Early bird
 

After years of shift work, I can't comment on this. I did a night shift last night and am up for an early tomorrow. My body clock is all over the place I eat at any opportunity be it day or night and I would be a GP's nightmare with bowel habits.

Previous studies into night shift work have shown that shift workers actually lose about 5 years from their lives and tend to die younger. However, it's not like you are losing the quality years in your 20's and 30's. You are losing the last 5 years when you can't remember your own name, piddle in your pants a lot and wish you were dead anyway. :D

Ive decided i get ratty at night when i've had to get up before dinner time ... you can blame cashy for this ... he came up for a brew .. said he'd be here after 12 noon ...

Re: Night owl vs Early bird
 

I tend to be up till between 3 and half 6 in the morning, then wake at 10am for work.

Sleep doesnt agree with me, there is always something to do so sleep isnt really that important to me.

Re: Night owl vs Early bird
 

Same here but I'm up at 5am in bed usually by 1am, you get a full day out of me.

Re: Night owl vs Early bird
 

I'm definitely an early bird. I get up at 5:30am during the week and even at weekends I'm up by 7am at the latest. I tend to get tired towards the end of the day, so I'm usually in bed for 10pm, unless I'm out and about.

I can work better in the mornings and find I can get loads done. However, I find it hard to work in the evenings and even if I bring stuff home with me, I find that it doesn't get until the following morning.

I have had nights like that but It's all in the past now.

I'm a night owl. I've been up since 2am since I've messed up my sleep pattern due to revision.

Most law firms don't start the day til 9.30am in the City. Mind you, the work doesn't necessarily stop at a normal hour anyway! Some solicitors work 16hrs a day when big deals needs to be worked on.
