Live in the past, is mine. I will listen to things over and over because some songs or even podcast episodes, rewind me back to times where I felt comfortable in. I do sometimes poke my head out to see where things are currently in the present, but nothing around really makes me gravitate to anything current-day. But, then I just go back to my hole in living in the past.
People used to tell old people to get over it about them remembering things as they were all of the time. I’m understanding why they do that. Sometimes the present really truly sucks.
For sure. The real test for finding out if you are a morning or night person is to NOT force yourself into a schedule and never set an alarm. Then you will find out what is actually natural for you. Of course, this can only really be done when you have an extended period of time without work, so I don’t think most people do it.
The only job I’ve ever had where I didn’t ever need to set an alarm was being a pizza delivery driver working second shift. I’m naturally a night owl, so I would go to bed around 5am and wake up between 11am and 2pm. I started work between 3 and 5pm and never once had to set an alarm. I miss it dearly. Now I am on an office 9 to 5 schedule went get to disrupt my sleep every single morning to make sure I make it to work on time. I love my job, but still resent my schedule.
Supposedly Descartes died from going to work too early. 9-5 is tyranny of the morning people!
