Work from 0:00-09:00, so I guess I belong here. During vacation I barely slept at all. I had to stay up during the day to spend time with my family, but my body didn't want to sleep at night anymore. Ended up just playing games all night and seeing family all day.

My sleep schedule varies when I work. I usually try to sleep from 10a-4p, but sometimes I don't get to bed until after noon. Most of my folks contact me via email/texting/social networking so that doesn't bother me, but the kids playing in the damn pool outside my window does. From 9am to 11pm, they're out there screaming their heads off. Little bastards...

Lunch time, but I don't get a lot of time to eat because the registers were acting screwy when I was trying to leave. Argh.

$#@%!!! :evil:
It's lunch time and I'm stuck fighting with a faulty installation of Apache/PHP. I'm not even sure what the hell this server is doing, other than keeping me away from my food.

May play some Pokemon LeafGreen tonight. I've been neglecting my GBA lately.

I go to sleep around 5 to 6 AM every day and wake up around 2PM. I get calls and texts from Japan frequently throughout the day and they have to be answered promptly, so I keep a Japan time sleep schedule.

That's a pretty neat reason to live the graveyard hours. When I was 14-16 a lot of my older online friends lived in Europe (UK/Germany) so I would sleep by their schedule so we could play together.

I usually go to bed pretty late, (or early). Lately it has been 5am, I blame caffeine. And I like getting work done when the rest of the world sleeps, its so quiet.

I think after a while my sleep schedule will go full circle and I will be on normal time again.

Well... I decided to stay for OT. It's way past my bed-time and I'm still at work. I plan on doing this every day until:

A. OT is no long available.

B. I reach on my 1 year review.

C. I die.

Too much OT and shift swapping lately. I'm working my ass off to get more weekends free so I can go see my girl. Stupid long distance bullshit. Worth it though.

Not working due to health issues and my sleep schedule is all out of whack. Not falling asleep until 4 or 5 AM and waking up around 11 AM. :shock:

That's the way I am when I don't have work. While on vacation, I had a similar schedule. I would stay up to about 4 or 6 AM playing video games, and then have to wake up super early so we could go do family things.

Had a headache, so I didn't come in early for OT. I may stay late today if I'm feeling up to it, but I've been getting worn out faster lately. Thinking about starting the energy drink addiction again, but it's been a long time. I have to push through and over work myself these next few months. This means coming in at 8 or 9pm and staying until 10 to 11am. It's going to kill me. (I'm an extremely "lazy" person).

Might finish up Pokemon tonight. I made it to Victory Road earlier, but my party basically consists of Blastoise, Pidgeot, and a bunch of random low levels. Might train up a few others before I move on.
