It seems like no matter what time I go to bed, I have trouble dragging my ass out of it in the morning. Maybe it's because I have no family to wake up to, maybe it's because I have been getting up at 6:00 to go jogging 2 or 3 times a week, maybe it's because I am lonely, maybe it's because I know I can just work late because I have no one to come home to...

What time do ya'll go to bed?

I usually go to sleep around 12-1 and wake up around 5:30-6...weekends I still get up early but stay up later...I'm not a big sleep fan.

I prefer to just wander around in a half sleep/half awake daze about 90% of the time.

usually go to bed around 10, but probably don't have a shot at falling asleep until 11.

I usually go to sleep between 11 and 12 and get up between 6:30 and 7:00 no matter what day it is.

But I dont usually have to be anywhere before 9:00 or not at all.

I do think that the whole "try and go to sleep and get up around the same time even on weekends" thing is helpful.

I could never get motivated enought to work out in the morning. I go after work, BEFORE I go home. If I go home first, it's over.


In bed: 10ish

Sleep timer set for 30 minutes around 11, fade out usually before it clicks off.


Up around 7am.




So weird too. I can remember NEVER missing Conan during college. I haven't seen a live show during the week in years.

I go to bed at 11, wake up at 5:30 on weekdays. Weekends I tend to also go to bed at 11 but sleep in til around 7. I feel like shit 5 days a week, in other words. I wish I could change my bedtime, but that would mean pretty much giving up the only free time I have during the week to gain the extra couple hours of sleep I need. This just proves to me that humans aren't meant to work 8 hours a day, nor spend 2-3 hours in traffic every day in order to do so.

I go to bed between 12 and 1 usually. Get up at 7:10. It's really not enough sleep, but I love staying up late.

I usually hit the bed by 10, and watch something on dvd for about 40 min and then fade out. I'm usually up between 6 and 7am to drive the missus into work. When I start work in the new year, I think I'll probably switch back to a tighter schedule (up at 6, work out at 7, out the door by 830-9am).

Usually about 11, depends on if I'm just hanging out at home or out with friends. I get up around 7-7:30. 8+ hours of sleep is still not enough for me though.

I'm up at 5:30 M-F, usually in bed between 10 and 11.

Weekends, forget it. I'll sleep as late as the family will allow.

Honestly, I require significantly more sleep than the average person. My friends nicknamed me siesta dave.

i go to bed between 11:30 and 12 during the week. i have trouble falling asleep and not even melatonin has helped lately, so it's probably closer to 12:30 by the time i actually fall asleep. my alarm goes off at 7:06 every morning. i'm usually groggy until halfway through my commute.

and, c'mon, "12:00 pm" as midnight?
