Both, not really by choice. Because of a bad back, have to sleep in the recliner. 4 hours is usually a good night. Drinking coffee by 4am at the latest. Me too, typing with one hand for my neck is killin me. Have no use of left arm, hand is swelled fingers looks like sausage links. Ain't seen my bed in two days. Finished my second lantern though.
I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

Early riser - have never set an alarm clock to get up for work. Automatically awake around 4:45.

I haven't slept in bed for over 2 years. I tried it a couple weeks ago, didn't last an hour.

After years of getting up at 4am for work and in bed no later, and most of the time before, 9pm I'd say I'm a early riser. But after being retired since last May, I can't shake the body alarm clock! Up everyday between 3-4am, in bed by 8pm. Someday maybe I can sleep till 6am. But the day would be almost over!
WISH I HAD MORE TIME TO TRAP!

LDW, I feel ya man. I personally can't believe in my 50's I'm in the shape I'm in. I rotate how my body dictates from the recliner, couch, bed. Get sleep however you can get it man. Gotta keep movin, rockin and laughing. That's all I got.

At least I'm still upright, that's the main thing.

I still haven't slept. I got 3 sisters left and I texted them all early this morning to wake up, if I can't sleep by dang you shouldn't either. My oldest, Sissy, tickled me. She didn't respond like the others did. She texted a few minutes ago and said I don't want to wake up you knothead. I text her back and said are you the smart one or the best sleeper, she said I'm both and your a pain in my arse but I love you. How cool is that. I love my sisters.

Late nighter always, sometimes early riser, sometimes napper.

I can wake up early when I need to but I can also work all night too if needed. I was skinning lynx all night now I’m having coffee and then I’ll start skinning the fox in my porch. When I was in my teens and twenties it was common to stay up for 3-5 days at a time.
