I am 1pm friend

Night gang rise... at 2pm

Oh we're all going nocturnal with this climate. It will be necessary. Maybe subterranean, too.

Cause us morning people can't stay up past 10 without significant effort!!

Sure, but in return your night just keeps going and going until you go to sleep at 4am.

It does. It's half over by that point.

Sometimes it’s hard to smell something that’s all over you, you don’t know till you take a shower and go back to your room that you stank af

I always suggest airing out your room while you shower

Then the dog comes in, and smells a snack he can lick up, while you try to keep them away, and play it off cool.........but that dog REALLY wants that snack!

And thats when your friends walk into you getting an unwanted bj from a dog, and everybody is like "OH MY GOOOOOODDDDDDDDDD!!!!!!"

And you're like "wait, no, I can explain!!!"

I'm imagining it like it could have been a scene in "Theres something about mary"

Yeah society needs us but doesn't want to pay shit for most night work. I hate waking up at 6 but I gotta make money.

And not grab me an extra muffin or something to eat for breakfast...

Grab an extra plate for a bro if you gonna be awake that early anyway! You know you're gonna need my ass to get everyone's collective shit together at 1am, so we can all get back safely; why the disrespect for us "late wake's"?

And yet, they seldom want to stay up past 9 to party it up, despite society labeling that behavior totally normal.

The early birds sometimes pick and choose to an absurd degree.

For real tho.
Why are we playing by morning people rules? We need to make some decisions in late afternoon after morning people already went to sleep, those lazy bastards! :D

Because most places run on morning person hours. If you don't get up early enough you can't get everything done because a lot of places close by mid afternoon. I think the compromise at this point is just divide society into day people and night people and just run everything 24/7. There should be enough of both for that at this point.

1pm sleep in 🙌

Fellow stay at home friend here, 🫡 I got your six. From my home.

At ease friendo 🫡

That reminds me of my dad which is why I avoided waking him up as a child.

I've done this. Don't recommend it, but it's great to point at when telling people not to wake me.

Insufferable.

It's currently 7:30 am. I just got off work, I'm browsing a bit on my phone before I take a shower & head to bed. Perfectly normal day for me & my wife understands. I get a hundred apologies if she has to wake me up for something, and she usually doesn't get out of bed before noon.

Us night owls are a necessary part of a functional society!

You're making me feel lucky for living somewhere things close at 2100. I've been missing my old city where things closed at 0200.

Regarding the snoring:

I snore like a freight train... a real "rattle the walls" type thing. It doesn't bother me cause I don't notice lol. Unfortunately, my wife is apperently "unable" to ignore it (I mean that sarcastically about her; my snoring can be/often is impressively loud)

I tried taping my mouth for snoring, but ended up choking on my own saliva. Works for some, not for me

But I went and got a sleep study done (that you can do at home, with equipment they loan you) because I didn't want to do that to my wife (and I guess there's health benefits too). Surprisingly, I was diagnosed as having only "mild" sleep apnea. As loud as my snoring (allegedly) can be; I thought it would be worse. So I was prescribed a CPAP and got my machine... mainly because I didn't want to force my wife into another room 3x a week, due to my obnoxious snoring

And holy shit... I hadn't slept so well, in so long, that it made me feel a little sad/stupid that I hadn't gotten a CPAP sooner. You have to find a set-up that works for your sleeping habits... but my god! I hate going without it now. Sometimes I forget to put it on, and sometimes I rip it off at night... but I can always feel how unrested I am now when I don't wear it

TL;DR - CPAP's are awesome and worth any mild inconvenience they may cause. And they also stop the snoring, regardless of cause. It's an inflammation/soft palate thing; sometimes you need a little extra pressure. The sleep you get is priceless though

Earplugs?

Mouth tape. Explained how much snoring affected me and the missus started using it. Cheap, simple, and the snoring stopped inside a week.

As for the dogs, stop rewarding then when they bark. Don't feed em, let em out, whatever it is they're wanting that they bark for that you keep doing. Sounds like they've trained you.

Days off too. I used to stay up all night, sleep all morning, and work part time at 5pm. Now I start work at either 4am or 7am, and sleeping any later than that on my days off feels as though I'm squandering my freetime. My wife and I still lie to ourselves and say we're going to sleep in, but then my 4-year-old wakes up at 6 like fucking clockwork, and it's all downhill from there.

That's why you get up at 830 or 9, go eat, come back and nap
