my circadium rhythm wants to always wake up around 1-2am and go to bed at 5pm

The quiet. I remember my Mother waking up an hour before everybody else in the house. It was the only hour of peace she ever got. + coffee

This is me, I have always loved the first hour or two after getting up since my kids started sleeping through the night.

I never understood why my dad was up at 5 or 6 every morning when I was a kid. I understood after my son turned around 2 or so

My mornings haven’t changed much (get up as late as possible during the week that actually allows me to leave on time, and sleep in a bit on weekends), but somewhere around 50, my nighttime strategy drifted from my usual “I want to max out my downtime and stay up until 1AM or so and just always be dragging a bit the next day at work” to “holy fucking shit it feels really good to actually get 7.5+ hr of sleep”, and I’m usually in bed by 10:30 now.

I can’t see myself ever becoming the 5am guy, although maybe the bedtime keeps drifiting earlier and it becomes a thing. I kinda hope that doesn’t happen.

I get up at 530 during the week. I try to go to sleep no later than 9pm but can go earlier and scroll for a bit.

Are these age appropriate for a soon to be 58 year old or the sign of an imminent mid-life crisis?

The cuffs 100%.

Shoes seem fine.

It started happening to me around the start of COVID. Started waking up around 5:00 no matter when I went to bed, and so bedtime got earlier and earlier until now I go to bed around 9 just to get a decent night’s sleep. And then sometimes my brain would wake me up around 4 just to fuck with me.

Ugh, the waking up completely randomly at 4 and then not being able to fall back to sleep (until like five minutes before my alarm goes off or something, because fuck me) also hit me a few years back.

CBD oil actually massively helped with staying asleep. Now if I wake up to piss at that time or something, even if my mind is trying to be stupid about it, I just pass right back out. Like “oh no, now I’m probably gonna psych myself out and be up all ni–zzzzzzZZZZZ…”

I was more worried the red denim may have seemed a bit “try hard” or something, but they are fire!

Send a pic when you buy them so we can evaluate the whole package.

It’ll cost you $5 to see the whole package, like everyone else on OnlyFans…

Whenever I have a hard time falling asleep I try to ruminate a bit on my life’s many failures or my impending death. That usually knocks me right out.

Looks like I have to lose another 3 inches off my waist to get into these so it’s time to decide if I want to spend $200 now and hold them or wait till they fit and spend ~$400 after the kickstarter… I suppose there is a chance they’d go on E-bay for $300 if never lose those inches…

Kidding, of course. I guarantee I spend hundreds on some crap that you’d think I was an idiot for.
