Unschoolers Sleeping Patterns :)
::she just is::
Same with me. I tend to do most of my stuff at night as well. Mostly I read
in the morning or early afternoon, and mostly sleep in the late afternoon!
*smile* I stay up until about midnight or one in the morning, and get up
around eight or nine. I used to feel guilty (when I first started
unschooling) for staying up till two in the morning and sleeping until ten
(my sister was worse -- she'd sleep until one in the afternoon!), but now
I'm fine with it. I mean, I get things done! :) ~Eryn

a man?" - Chuang Tsu
