Well, it sure doesn't apply in my own case. For the last 2 nights, I've just slept from about 1 to 5 after being out hiking in the woods for hours, cooking dinners and working in the vegetable garden. Actually, in summer, I can't sleep past 4:30 or 5 a.m.. Impossible. I never have been able to sleep later than that once the weather gets good. I think it might go back to years ago when my grandmother was still alive. She was also an insomniac and an early riser. She would get up at around 4 or 5, before dawn, and go for walks along the beach to watch the sun come up and all of the birds and other creatures coming to life. Some mornings I woke up and went with her. Other mornings, I was too sleepy to go. On those days, she would come back into the cottage and tell me about everything she had seen. I always felt disappointed on the mornings when I slept in and missed going out walking with her, so I made an effort to get up with her. It was well worth the trouble. My other memory of early mornings was of getting up with my Dad, who was also an early riser. We would get up and do some kind of air force calisthenics exercises together in the living room each morning when he wasn't away travelling up north. I can still remember doing jumping jacks and push-ups next to him. Makes me laugh just to think of this. (o:
