Sometimes I really wish I wasn't a born morning person. Sleeping in until eight or so at Entmoot was as much as I could do...and I usually had to re-watch the last episode we were watching when I gave up tryin' to stay awake.

And lately I've been waking up even earlier, for some reason. The alarm clock doesn't go off until six thirty, but I'm awake at five thirty or six. *sigh*

So...whatcha reading that's keeping you up so late? Or early, as the case may be!

Truthfully Rosie, this has been one of those big challenges for me this last year. I like being a morning person. I would much prefer to get up before the sunrise and greet the morning. I useta do that when I worked a real job. We had flex time and were allowed to be at work anywhere from 5:30AM to 8 AM and then work the appropriate hours and leave! My engineer and I were usually the first 2 people to arrive in the office long before 3rd shift in the plant left. We loved it.... and we got to go home (read "home" - riding our motorcycles) right after most people came back from lunch!!! :-)

But, I agreed when I took this job that after Myrnada graduated from high school I would teach the majority of my classes at night because that's where most of our enrollment is. I have really had to change my internal clock to get used to being "up" for night class. If I go back to my regular internal schedule when I'm off it really messed up work too. I was up at 6 this morning... even though I read till 4. I just went back to bed cause I knew if I didn't I'd be up till about 8 tonight, go back to bed and be on that schedule till I had to change it back for work. That's no fun when you have to force it. So, I'll try to stay this way. Reading in the night helps since I like to read.

I dunno if I like this book or not. A new author that someone recommended. I like historical fiction so I usually try what's recommended in that genre at least once. This is Aztec by Gary Jennings. Even though I read it for hours last night, I'm not hooked.
