Makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.

Well, perhaps not, but I used to stay up until between 2 and 4 in the morning every day for a number of reasons, one of which was that I could get more work done if no one was awake to distract me. This year, I’ve been slowly adapting to a schedule wherein I get up at 4 or 5 in the morning and go to sleep around 9 or 10. I was having more success before I started watching TV again. (Damn you, Lost!)

Anyhow, it’s very nice to be up for a few hours on your own before you have to go to work/school/whatever. You aren’t as groggy, and you don’t have to start your day off by getting ready to work—instead, you get a couple of hours of flex time to do whatever tickles your fancy. I like it, but maybe I’m just crazy.
