Default Don't You People Ever Sleep?

I usually get up every morning somewhere between 630 AM and 7 AM. After my cup of coffee I check in on what all the folks at TOTV have been up to. I have noticed that quite a few of you are posting at 3, 4, 5 and 6 AM. Do you have insomnia or do you get up that early? I just thought it was strange to see those times.

Default That may be the only time they have free from golf and watching golf on TV.

They probably have other priorities.

Sleep? Sleep is a habit and you can break it.

Since I'm living in Germany right now and it's 6 hours ahead, it looks like I'm posting in the middle of the night...

Sometimes when I wake up at 3 a.m. I check TOTV and it puts me right back to sleep

I can only speak for myself. I am still working and my company allows me to work as I please. I guess I am at the top of the Totem Pole. The past month I have been at work at 3AM. I usually walk 3-5 miles before I get to my desk. Today I will walk after I get a few jobs done. With this flexible schedule the company also pays me very well and allows me to spend up to 12 weeks a year in TV. Win win situation.

The times appearing with the posts are not the same as when the posts were actually made. Just checked all of my past postings and many appear to have been made around 4am. Unless I have a sleep-walking problem that I'm not aware of, I've NEVER been on TOTV at that time. Computer savy folks could easily explain this, I'm sure.

I think it is safer for people our age to stay awake.

From 3-4:30 each night, I have trouble sleeping. I usually get up, go to the bathroom, get on the computer and when it just begins to lighten up outside, I get back into bed for a bit more sleep.
