@Totalanimefan: oh very nice! Great job! And i'm sure it's nice to have the house ready to be staged!
@xvz: Yeah, it's just cause i've been working either evening shift or night shift schedules since i was at least 20. so it's been a little over 9 years, if not just under 10. I just turned 30 last month. When i sleep varies with each job i have and the work schedule, but generally i'd wake up at most an hour before work, for example, when i worked 2:30-11pm, i'd wake up at 2, get ready and out the door, go to work, come home, wind down, make dinner, watch tv or something, and then go to bed between 4 and 7 am, which would give me 7-10 hours of sleep before doing it again. the thing my mother in law doesn't/didn't get is that her asking me and my hubby to be up before say 10 wasn't really feasible because that would be like someone who works at 9, getting up at like 5 or 6 am and then going to work for 9. Like no one who works a day shift gets up 4 hours early before work. maybe 2 hours if they have to commute and get ready with hair and makeup or something, but when i work i shower at night, so in the "morning" i just have to brush my hair, toss it in a ponytail, brush my teeth, get dressed, and go, so there's no need to be up earlier unless i have a commute, and i don't usually take jobs where i have a long commute. And there's never been a way to explain it to her because she wouldn't listen and would just dismiss our explanation.
Now that i'm between jobs, my sleep schedule fluctuates a little, but mostly i go to bed around 7-10am, depending on how tired i am, and then if my husband lets me just sleep i'll be up 10-12 hours later usually, but he'll wake me up if i sleep past 8 pm usually. Though today he woke me up at 3, because we had dnd at 7 and needed to clean our room before we went. As for if it's hard to go out, well we don't usually go anywhere throughout the week, and if we have to go shopping, i'll be up by 8pm or earlier and go to walmart, which here closes at 11. And if we decide to go on a date or eat out we'll plan the date a few days in advance so i'll be up earlier, and eating out, well we just go to a 24hr fast food place like McD's or Wawa. Basically it's not super inconvenient for us to be night owls, and our friends are night owls too so it doesn't really matter.
