The animals think I'm a slacker for not feeding them yet. I'm not even hungry for dinner, but I'm sleepy. No chance I'm going out anywhere this late after sunset.
I know I'm not alone here...

I like the night. Day is done and the world is at peace.

I hate this time change. I come home from work and put my pj's on. I'm ready for bed by 6:30. : /

I love sunshine during the day, but I'm really a night owl, so I don't even notice when it gets dark. Love the dark.

That's when I walk the dog, too. Kitty, if you ever want to walk Emma after dark, Croz and I will come to you.

Agree - love the daylight - not so much the dark - and if anyone cares I'm not leaving - hubby and I decided our lifestyle is more important than the house we live in. Yep, we are finally grown up.

I'm glad I'm not in Alaska where they won't see the sun until January. I love light and bright and can't imagine so many months of darkness.
