I used to get up really early until I graduated high school, then in college I started staying up until the sun would come up, sometimes not sleeping for over 24 hours. I don't know how I did it and not to turn into a zombie, but I did. Now I occasionally stay up past midnight, maybe till 1 or 2 in the morning, but rarely later than that. I did, however, stay up until 6am a few weeks ago watching videos on youtube lol. I am almost always in bed by 11pm, even on weekends. I get so darned tired anymore that I literally can't stay awake longer than that. I could be on the couch watching TV and I will fall asleep. Yet on Saturday, I sleep until 3 or 4 in the afternoon. It's like my day to catch up on sleep. Unless I'm doing something with someone, I always sleep late on Saturday. Sunday, that's my church day so I'm up by 9am, which is still nice compared to getting up at 6am on weekdays. If I let myself, I could sleep all day Saturday, eat some dinner, then go right back to bed and not wake up until Sunday. I have actually done that before. But I don't think that's healthy. I just feel like when I get up I'm dragging and tied down by lead weights and I have to forcefully keep myself from falling back asleep, and on Saturdays I have nothing else to do so I just sleep. I wish I had a life. Does anyone else sleep that much? I have chronic fatigue syndrome, so I know that has to play into it, but I wonder to myself if it's abnormal even for having CFS. You know what annoys me is that they always seem to have good TV programming on late at night, like when I should be in bed, especially during the week! I'm like dang it, I want to watch that but it comes on at midnight! I swear I'm like an elderly person living in a 30 year old body.
