Beer Chang Posted December 16, 2009 Report Posted December 16, 2009 Those of us not working, have great lattitude as to wake up times. I've always been a night person and I generally get up around 11 AM. I like being up and out at night cause it's cooler.
rucus7 Posted December 16, 2009 Report Posted December 16, 2009 Although I am retired, I still wake up at 6:00 AM. I like to work out early. I usually take a nap in the early afternoon, I sleep between 20 to 90 minutes then I say awake until about 1:00 AM
Wino Posted December 16, 2009 Report Posted December 16, 2009 I am with you Rucus. I have been getting up early all my life and the habit continues. I find it hard to sleep past 7 or 8 am but usually up at 6.

CrazyExpat Posted December 28, 2009 Report Posted December 28, 2009 I wake up when the sun rises. I can be in Thailand on a holiday and my natural alarm clock goes off. I can be in Europe working and as soon as the sun rises, I am out of the bed. If I am home, the rooster usually beats me to it.
Thaimo Posted December 28, 2009 Report Posted December 28, 2009 If it is already daylight when I wake up, then I woke up late.
Beer Chang Posted December 28, 2009 Author Report Posted December 28, 2009 There were a few nights when I was stumbling home at dawn. But now I'm generally asleep by around 4AM.
Wino Posted December 29, 2009 Report Posted December 29, 2009 My sleep patterns are all mixed up, at times. Glad to have the internet to past the time.
Wino Posted December 30, 2009 Report Posted December 30, 2009 TV helps too, especially if you have cable or satellite.
Bob Posted December 30, 2009 Report Posted December 30, 2009 TV helps too, especially if you have cable or satellite. Now that's an original idea, Wino! (Okay, okay, not funny.....but buddy lvdkeyes will like it...hehe).
Wino Posted December 31, 2009 Report Posted December 31, 2009 Au contraire! I think buddy lvdkeyes will find it funny! I think you and little buddy are a bit like Mutt and Jeff.
lvdkeyes Posted December 31, 2009 Report Posted December 31, 2009 Great minds run in the same direction.
Wino Posted December 31, 2009 Report Posted December 31, 2009 Is it great minds think alike or fools never differ?
Bob Posted January 1, 2010 Report Posted January 1, 2010 I don't suffer fools. I like to think I don't.....but I do suffer myself way too often!
dirtyferang17 Posted January 1, 2010 Report Posted January 1, 2010 when in in the LOS im out late at night so im normaly up around the 10 - 11 mark grab a feed chill out on the beach for the arvo
Bob Posted January 1, 2010 Report Posted January 1, 2010 Do you enjoy the suffering? God, that's so catholic (or buddhist/jewish/etc.). It's not a question of enjoying or not enjoying my occasional (well, ok, more than occasional) foolishness as it's just "normal" most of the times. Plus, it'd probably be a sin to enjoy suffering too much....hehe.
lvdkeyes Posted January 1, 2010 Report Posted January 1, 2010 Spoken like a true Catholic. Ah, the guilt!

lvdkeyes Posted January 26, 2010 Report Posted January 26, 2010 There is more involved in forgiveness than just going to confession and saying some prayers.
Beer Chang Posted January 26, 2010 Author Report Posted January 26, 2010 confessional An Irishman goes into the confessional box after years of being away from the Church. There's a fully equipped bar with Guinness on tap. On the other wall is a dazzling array of the finest cigars and chocolates. Then the priest comes in. "Father, forgive me, for it's been a very long time since I've been to confession, but I must first admit that the confessional box is much more inviting than it used to be." The priest replies: "Get out. You're on my side."
