I spent the better part of my mission re-activating the trail of wet bodies your so-called royal generation left in its wake.

Uebermensch. What time do you go to bed, and how much sleep do you need? I'd do a poll but lack the skilz. I'm good if I get close to seven, but if I get less than 6 for multiple days I'm a mess. |

It varies a lot. No earlier than ten but usually eleven. One time, it hurt quite a lot when I went to bed at three in the morning but forced myself to rise by four thirty to make the workout. By the end I felt better than I did when I first woke.

That habit carried over to their married life. Dad would get up early to do paperwork for his construction business and Mom would get up to correct her 2nd grade class school work. They didn't intentionally wake us kids up, but I'm a light sleeper and would hear them in the kitchen so I would get up.

One of my professional mentors has an office-day job, but he's a poet on the side. He gets up early and goes on a walk to shake off the grogginess. After about five or ten minutes, he says, he spends then next hour of his walk composing poetry. What time do you go to bed?

My favorite time of day is just before the sun comes up over the mountains and the sky is just light enough for the mountains to be silhouetted against it.

With all due respect, I can think of a few things that would top that.
