On not being a morning person
I was thinking the other day about "morning" people and how strange and alien they were. Then I wondered why I wasn't one.
Anyway I don't think the difference is in a physiological response to sunlight, and I don't know that I necessarily come with a pre-programmed body clock or that I have some affinity with the moon in some mystical earthy moony way - I do like mornings after all, breakfast is an excellent thing, but I don't like being sleepy. And hence my theory - that for me at least, I tend towards nocturnal habits because when I'm tired/sleepy I find it harder to wake up from sleep than to stay awake, and maybe that's all there is to it!
