My pattern, when left to my own devices, is five hours of sleep and eight hours of waking. Which makes for a 26 hour day. Since I found that out, I have been claiming my own time zone.

Wow- this is good news. I thought I was all screwed up in my sleep since working from home. I was beginning to think I was just getting old :-(

I first noticed that tendency in myself about 15 years ago, much to the amusement of my friends at the time (I either crawled into a corner for an hour or was terrible company). And it’s how I would sleep, if given the chance: 8:30pm till 12:30am, then awake, 1:30am till 5 or 6am. These days, for many reasons, I just skip the first half and get up at 8am :-(

Now, I only have to ditch my partner’s TV set out elegantly through the third floor window and I can join the dreamers’ club I guess.
… and maybe work out on my late night blogaholism.
Us bloody, addicted souls!

This sleep pattern works best for me too. I’m thinking that when you were a child you were closest to the neanderthal…all that worrying about monsters was right on target.

This is about how my sleep routine goes these days anyway except last night it was punctuated by several bouts of profuse vomiting from the child, which did nothing to help me relax or doze off.

It’s true. This is how both me and my husband sleep since we quit office jobs to work for ourselves, and can get up any time we like.
