I like the idea that late to bed and to wake up my not necessarily be a bad thing, but super curious to know if for me that's because of a genetic predisposition or many hours in front of screens.
Sorry - should have 2018 in the title.
It's 1:41 am. I'm back at my 20yo sleep schedule. This is the stupidest mid-life crisis ever.

For years and years I got up with my kids at 5am. I was sleep deprived all the time but it was way easier than new-infant world so I felt fortunate-ish.

Eventually I ran out of kids. Things went along for a time, mostly normal hours. Then 2am became my new sleeptime. Which was annoying because my bedtime was much earlier.

I'm not stressed. I lay there thinking of nothing for hours. Eventually the ability to sleep shows up. I've often tried to walk it back or forward or jump over it & I might score a couple of days of difference than back I go. 2 am.

Eh, whatever. It's better than Covid.

maybe your brain arent tired enough. or maybe you couldnt go to sleep due to low frequency city hum that decreases only around 2am at your place
We're suburban/rural. All housing except for an ALF and a mega supermarket 1k ft away.

Also bedroom is interior w/o windows, noise resistant.

Supermarket's schedule changed with the pandemic. Hum from there should have changed with it.

Really interesting line of thought tho.
