Late Start

When I was in high school, I routinely slept for only three hours per night and was able to function throughout the day.

I worked at the office on Tuesday until 8:30 p.m., and then had to stay up until 3 a.m. to finish preparations for my Wednesday morning class.

I managed to get through class (though I did mix up the Letter Writer with the First Man during the lecture), a meeting, and managed a few hours of productive work before heading home.

I had set my alarm for 6 a.m. this morning, so that I could get some work done at school, but slept right through it. Thus, instead of arriving at school by 9 a.m., it's now 11:30 a.m. And after a full eight hours of sleep last night, I'm still tired.

So, I guess it's true: I'm really not as young as I used to be!
