It never seems much of a skill until I hear of people who have trouble doing it and then I'm grateful for my 'talent'.Patsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12263765378083045973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6051602384535005789.post-22425205067212121552012-03-31T20:15:03.607-04:002012-03-31T20:15:03.607-04:00Apparently whisky helps.

Bad Blogger :)<br /><br />My brain sometimes does this, too. It finally gets tired and crashes, then refuses to function when the body is rested. Takes a bit for them to get in sync again. At least with mine. This happens with me when I'm really crunching on a project.Carol Kilgorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03745686632918324803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6051602384535005789.post-70197585590087830902012-03-30T14:43:19.801-04:002012-03-30T14:43:19.801-04:00Are you in the midst of drafting/revising/editing?...Are you in the midst of drafting/revising/editing? I couldn't sleep for the first week after beginning my editorial revisions. I dreamed about line edits.

Then it decides to catch up on its sleep deficit, and I'm blissfully unconscious when the alarm rudely yanks me out of dreamsville.<br /><br />Sometimes, just for variety, it doesn't want to quit when I go to bed, either. Hubby's quite used to me vacating the bed at midnight to go and write for an hour or two. And then the brain wakes up again at five...Diane Hendershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07563115165301223420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6051602384535005789.post-18371531900320410382012-03-30T09:56:58.122-04:002012-03-30T09:56:58.122-04:00HA!

For some reason, 4:45 seems to be my internal wake-up call, no matter what time I go to bed. So I don't fight it. Besides, I kinda like getting up that early.
