I am convinced humans can be nocturnal

3:30 am, just hopped out of my comfy chair where I was hand sewing a pair of hands to type this

because well, I am nocturnal, my mom says even as a toddler I slept better in the day and kept her up all night, and come the summer after 6th grade when she allowed me to make my own bed time, I uhhh was up watching Tales from the Crypt, X Files and infomercials till like dawn XD (Oh how my nights got better when we got cable, lol)

I have been struggling to maintain a semi-"normal" sleep cycle, namely because it distresses my mom when I stay up past dawn and sleep half the day.

In the winter I manage in bed 3am-4am and up around noon fairly well, and it works to my advantage because I have 2 conventions to attend and it gets dark at 5pm

in the spring I began to struggle, in bed 4am-5am and up before 2pm... and I must admit, Toonami Aftermath airing Dragonball served as great motivation to get out of bed, I never saw all of it (which is a crime considering I have been an avid Dragonball Z fan since I was 12) and it aired at 2pm and 6pm every day... and now that I have seen it all...

well point is, my nocturnal nature is screaming to go back into my in bed 6am-7am and up around 3pm routine

But I KNOW my mom hates this and there is the issue of my sister and the world in general being loud (the duplex next door has lawn care people every Thursday... with their lawnmower and leafblower around noon) BUT GERTDANGIT I am not gonna fight it anymore.

I am going to bed and getting up when I fricken feel like it

*goes back to sewing hands
I am gonna finish these suckars tonight

PS oh dear gawd I hated school for one big main reason
mornings
I always felt tortured waking up, I had to be in my seat at 7:40 which meant up at 6am and HOLY FAK MAN I am more comfortable staying up till 6 than getting up at 6 IT WAS DARK HALF THE YEAR WHEN I WOKE UP
no no no no no I hate mornings, it feels like from 8h grade onward I was ALWAYS tired and I blame mornings X_X

EDIT: 5am now, both hands are done including nails... still wiiiiiiiiiiide awake O___O

I am the EXACT same way. Every night i'm up till around 2 am on a normal basis. Other days i'll stay up till 6 am, or not even sleep. Somehow im able to power through the next day on NO sleep whatsoever...
My conclusion:
I IS A OWL
