When I was a teenager I was really depressed and I slept an avg of 10-12 hours a day. I used sleep to escape from the world. It was really peaceful, with the lack of responsibility and stress. I would love it if I could sleep that much now, but I’m almost 30 and have a mountain of debt. But that’s another story… I think that I could sleep that much now, but I wouldn’t have time for fun, unless I considered sleeping fun…………hmmmm……..I think I found a new hobby! goodnite.

There is some people who like to wake up ass early (like before 7am) and go like an energizer bunny all day and get tired around 9pm and go to sleep. I am not one of those people. Even if i only get 3 or 4 hours of sleep, i feel most energized at night. I savor the hours between 7pm and 4am, that is when i thrive. Unfortunately i am not getting enough sleep because i usually have to be at work at 8am.

“I either sleep until my body wants to wake up, or I feel energy-deprived every second of the day.” I’m not the only one! I also got in trouble in high school for being late. (Can you imagine me getting in trouble? Preposterous.) Also, I have an early memory of my mom trying to dress me for kindergarten while I was fighting to stay asleep. Really good post. Thank you.

Speaking of scientific proof for intuitive truths, has anyone proven yet that junk food actually tastes better late at night? So you spend the day eating junk for energy and then eat more late at night for pleasure.

Thanks, Andrea. My guess is that “saturation with images of 50-foot corset-clad models that you will never be able to touch” is up there somewhere too.
