What time is bed time?
« on: June 07, 2013, 09:01:24 PM »
It's a Friday night, and I am honestly thinking about going to bed right now.

Jogged a couple miles after work, had a nice dinner with some booze, and I am rough ridin' beat.

What is an acceptable bed time, by day of week, occupation, and age?

My job is mentally taxing, but physically pud.  Seems like I should be able to make it past 9PM on a Friday.

9 during the week?  Man, that's pretty early, but I bet it feels great in the morning.

So, how long is your morning routine before you get in the car?  When I am by myself, I can do bed-shower-dressed in 20 minutes.  But, most of the time I give myself an hour.

Week nights- 11 up at 7
Weekends- Late up at 8

Currently in bed because I have to be up at 6:30 to move into a new house early. I'm not happy about this early night.

weekday, up at sometime between 4-6.  down at whenever my Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) brain will let my body fall asleep.
weekend - sleep when my brain wants to, for as long as it wants to; sheer bliss.

I mimic sys with the exception of not being able to stay asleep on the weekends.  It's the other living things in my dwelling that make it more of an impossibility than anything else.  It's shorting my life, I know it.  I'm not sure where I stand on that though.  Ambivalent.

I wake up at 5 MWF for hoops. Usually 7 Tu/Thu, 5:30 if I do yoga. Sleep till about 8 on weekends.

Usually want to go to bed at about 9:30 but don't actually make it until 11 or so during the week. Around midnight on weekends.

Weekdays: Up at 6, go to bed at 10:30 - 11
Weekends: Up at 7:30, go to bed at 11 - 11:30ish

I feel like if you vary your bed time a lot between weeknights and the weekend it's hard to get in a rhythm, but maybe that's just me. I use to sleep in until like 9 on the weekends, then I had a kid. Job is mental, and no physical.

Makes perfect sense. I've always found that caffeine induces sleep.

This week, i made it to sleep around midnight...up at eight. Had to be at work by 9.  I never get to sleep before the birds start chirping on the weekends (which is apparently around 3). 


Darn birds.
