The average person needs 8 hours sleep per day. However, I pride myself on being above average in all things, which is why I require 18!

Depends what I've been doing. A day at the computer might mean 4 to 5 hours sleep. A day doing heavy work and training or dance can knock me out for twelve or more.

My grandfather used to say, "You can't soar with the eagles during the day if you're busy hootin' with the owls all night". Now that's just good farmboy philosophy

I have never been a "morning person". I used to stay over someone's house and every time I woke up I wanted to strangle her. She had that wide eyed face and smile and would say, "GOOD MORNING!!!". I don't like being bothered as soon as I wake up. When I was in college during one summer, my ex and I used to go to bed at like 9am and wake up at like 5pm when there was no school. I'm a night owl for the most part. If it wasn't for work or other responsibilities over the years, I would probably wake up at 11am every day of my life.

Some people are "rode hard and put up wet" and others are just night owls who sleep in.

I used to be a night owl that stayed up late writing music. Most of my ideas came at night. As a result, sometimes I slept late to make up for it (though you never catch up...lol) Now I work 10 -12 hours; 5 - 6 days a week, and sometimes sleep late to recuperate..lol

It is natural for people to go through changes as far as their sleeping habits. Life is short, don't sleep it away nor be jealous of people who do.

IfI'm up till 3:00 am and there is no sun in the am I can get up-go to bathroom-goback to bed till 11 or later. Once in a while.

I go to bed between 2 - 3 in the morning and get up between 9 - 11. The early worm gets eaten by the bird.

They probably feel the same about you.

Sometimes I’ll sleep until noon or 1:00. But then I don’t have regular hours. Some nights I’ll go to be at two or three in the morning because I’m working on a project. Other times, I’ll go to bed early, but end up waking up in the middle of the night, and so I find myself up for a while. Almost every day I wake up between six and eight, but rarely get up. I usually end up trying for a couple more hours. On average I’m up by eleven...

I work from 3p to 11p and then have an hour drive home so I get home at midnight then after work I relax and play games, maybe do laundry, so I don't get to bed until 3am or so. Then I wake up at 11a. If I have had a particularly painful day the day before and I'm not working I can sleep until 230 pm. I've slept for over 15 hours before, just because I had little sleep and a long painful day.

That's the fun part of my disorder. The not fun part is I also suffer from periods of severe insomnia

It all depend with me. I love morning and always wake the sun. Some nights I'm out cold by 10:30p most other nights it's around 2a. Sometimes i don't sleep for about four days. I just can't.

Depends on when you go to bed.

if i have sleep deprivation, then i can sleep in until noon
