I don't understand my sleeping patterns at all. There are days when I simply cannot get out of bed. And then there are other days, like today, when I seem to wake up awfully early and then be completely unable to go back to sleep. This morning I woke up around 5:30 and couldn't get back to sleep to save my life. Finally around 7 I got up and got the paper, coffee, and started the day. It's nice to be up in the morning, but it's simply impossible for me to be up most mornings. And it seems to have little to do with when I go to bed, since last night I went to bed very late. It would be nice to have some kind of regularity when it comes to my sleep, but that seems to be out of reach.
