What are your blogging habits?

Blogspot was created in 1999. My uncle first introduced the term "blogging" in 2000. However, I thought that it was quite a stupid thing at that time because I thought who would want their personal diaries to be read by the whole world? My mindset about blogs started to change a few years back when I started to see the real power of blogging.
I post in my blog almost daily, at no specific time.
There are many types of blogs, but majority of people own personal blogs. Do you have any habits when it comes to blogging? Do you blog at a certain time of the day or do you blog anytime when you feel like doing so?

I used to be in the habit of blogging everyday, sometimes twice a day! Eventually it dwindles a bit. I've had a blog for well over 6 years now, and at first it was just a place to put my crazy ramblings. I didn't really expect anyone to read; and then people did, thanks to my older sister incorporating me into her circle of friends.
I had a tendency to blog in the mornings because I dream very vividly and like to write them down. They make for really EPIC stories, and I'm sure some of them will be someday. I didn't want to forget the dreams, so I wrote them down as soon as I woke up.
Other bloggings tended to happen at night, before going to bed, as a recollection of the days events in a manner that was hopefully interesting and informative. Occasionally, there was blogging REALLY late at night because I couldn't sleep for whatever reason. I had a lot of night mares, as well as anxiety attacks about sleeping back in the day, so I needed something to occupy my mind so I could sleep again. Thankfully, a good deal of angsty blogs served just that purpose!
When I had a desk job... I had a tendency to sneak blogs in just before lunch, or at the end of the day, to pass the time more quickly. Sometimes it was just a matter of feeling 'stuck' and frustrated... I had an intense desire to do something creative and something MINE.
... Now I'm not sure I have any blogging habits in terms of time, except whenever I HAVE time.
