My Ideal Schedule

I know there different people out there – morning people, night owls, those comfortably in the middle. I can, and have, adapted to all of these. I’ve worked overnights. I’ve worked overnights and a mid-shift day job. I’ve worked a 9-5. I’ve worked retail, and we all know that means that your schedule is different. Every. Fucking. Week.

Anyway. I have decided that my ideal schedule is that of a night owl. I function very well when the rest of the world is sleeping; dreaming without the threat of an alarm going off. When the creepy things are said to be out and about. When people are afraid for whatever reason. And I don’t know why that invigorates me, but it does. I am more creative, more passionate. That’s just how it is.

Now, I can function otherwise. I’m not someone who is locked into a routine. I am adaptable. But, I suppose that if my ideal method of functioning is that of a “night owl”, that kinda makes me nocturnal, doesn’t it?

I’m up later than I should be working on something I probably shouldn’t be, but I want to, and I’m writing this in the downtime, so yeah.

How cool would it be if society could/ would adapt to people’s internal clocks? For example, if I were a marketing person – executive or otherwise – what if the firm i work for said, “You’re a night person? Ok cool. We’ll have daily calls set in the afternoon for you to get clarity on projects, and then you can have the night to do your thing.”

And for the early bird? “Oh, you like to be up early? Great. we’ll schedule daily calls for you late morning to early afternoon, and your day can be done by 3pm.”

How awesome would that be?

Side note. capitalization is bullshit. sometimes. i prefer not to use it other than for names, honestly. i can tell where the start of a sentence is by the period from the last sentence.

and with that, i’m done. have a great night!
