When I was actively teaching at DVC, I would grade papers until I passed out, usually at about 11 PM. At this point, I usually pass out by 9 PM. At what point in the evening do you usually "call it a day"?. .

@DaddyEvil Do we read it as "DE's system is attuned to night shift, or can we say Day Shift of India!! " I assume Trump won't like it and slap some Tariffs on you!!

For me, it gets till Midnight. Occasionally up till 12.45 in the night. I know it is not the best but somehow I think my orientation is more towards "Night Owl" domain than an Early Morning Bird !!

These days I go to bed anywhere between 7 and 9pm. The alarm goes off at 5:30am and I need my sleep. When I have the next day off who the hell knows. I went to bed early last night but now I'm wide awake at almost 1am. The good news is that I don't have anywhere to be tomorrow so I can sleep late.

My alarm is the sun. Or at least "light." My apartment faces East.

No matter what time I go to bed it’s a crapshoot. I never know when and if son will be up so there’s that…and sometimes I nap when he does.

You go to bed at 4PM? I know I’m a night owl. I guess we all sleep at different times.

Not sure I could do that but evening means dinner for the son and I, clean up, shower, sometimes a project, etc. Like I said, we are all different.

I try to go to bed at nine p.m., though sometimes I wind up going later because I'm not watching the clock.

9 PM sounds like a reasonable time. Sometimes I "crash and burn" earlier.

We usually watch a movie after dinner and by 9 PM we go to bed. I read for half an hour and then I sleep until 5 in the morning.

10 pm at the latest is when I'm getting ready to navigate the stairs for bed. Often I write for a while before I shut off for the day. I have to get up in the morning to pill and feed cats so I don't sleep in very late,
