Time Zones

This time zone factor does have an effect on our participation specially when one wants a continuous flow of comments and how can one achieve that if people are snoring at that time!

I'm already done with mylotting that time ...I'm having my beauty rest .. You just came from snoring too..

That's exactly what I am saying when you most want someone to join in that one will snore away with heaven knows what dreams!

But you do not log on to myLot at that time. Do you?

I think you are two and a half hours ahead of India. If you are still sleeping then you will be getting up at what time? You love your sleep it appears. To each their own I guess. I love sleep too as I go to sleep early - around 9. "Early to bed, early to rise makes the man healthy, wealthy and wise"!

I get up at 7 or 8AM my time, so if I'm 2.5 hours ahead,that's 4:30 to 5:30am, your time. Then that means we get up at the same time.

Oh! That is the secret[though I cannot implement it because I am very active when you are snoring away at 9p.m at night.I go to bed not before 11oclock and sometimes it can go beyond that easily.

What do you do in those ghastly hours kala!

I am an exception kala as most do get up, your time. But I sleep early. I love my mornings and I can do a lot of work during these hours. After 5 in the evening I dont even want visitors. I hit the pillow by 9. So at this moment you are snoring away!

hi again I think it would be about six pm here so I would be back mylotting like craZy as i get more done in the e veningf, I had dinner at four so will stop at 9 pm have a snack then go to be at ten p m. hard for me as before I came to G old crest I went to bed at 11 or 12 and rose at 8am. now here I am forced to a ten oclock bedtime and rise at 6am ungodly hour to up up for me. yawn.

You are the third person that would keep me company banging away on the keyboard! California is twelve hours behind India. Its evening for you. I have friends and relatives that part of America. In fact I have several scattered all over America and Canada too!

Yah..I am a late sleeper, maybe 5am is the best time for me to retire I use to work with graveyard shift from 12 midnight to 9am- and my system still having hard time to adjust

I understand that. Once one gets to work on shifts adjusting to normal timings really becomes an effort.

If you are a late sleeper which means at 5 my time it would be 7 yours you would still be sleeping. Some beautiful precious hours all wasted!.

That's what a real friend of mine from the UK who is with me in another forum does sometimes. When I was posting there at 5 a.m. she was still awake and had yet to get to bed. I would be confused whether to wish here good night or good morning!

Good morning and sweet dreams? - day dreaming perhaps?

That can be subject of a discussion all by itself...why not.."Good morning,sweet dreams!" ...

And as soon as the dishes are done up, I am right back online. That is why I often see you in what I consider to be my evening. At 7 in the morning my time I will frequently head to the porch with a cup of coffee and my laptop. That would be just a bit before you head to bed.

You are right. America has its own time zones. New York and the surrounding areas are ten and half hours behind India, and California is twelve hours behind, which shifts by an hour in winter I am told. And that applies to all zones in America and Canada. I remember once when my niece and I were in Canada on holiday (just for 2 days) she took me on sight seeing and only realised when we reached the spot that we were early by one hour. Everything was closed! Now when I am at the pc at 5 in the morning I can visualise you and your beloved hogging away at the table!

I sleep early but do work on my pc throughout the day as and when I find time. I am so addicted that I wonder what I would do without it. When I have guests I am really lost as I have to spend time with them and for them!

You are the second filipino who talks about sleeping late. Now let me calculate. It will be around 7.30 in the morning for you when poor me is busy banging on my keyboard!And if you say you get up around 9 your time then I dont think I will ever bump into you at that time of my precious hours.

The grandeur of myLot is that it waits patiently with open arms for users to come as and when it suits them but I was curious to know how many would be there at their pc.s banging away at that part of my morning.

We won't really bump into each other if you go online that early in your time . I was wide awake and was the one banging at my keyboard when you were still soundly asleep. It was good we crashed into each other this time, I believe it's already around 1pm your time or something. I work PM shift here so I am online from now until around 8 hours from now.. So, see you around

I cannot think of getting back to bed once I am awake. Funny habit you have akp!

So you are going through a transition phase. I perfectly understand it and before you know, you will be up and about at the time you want to, consistently.

Lol.. Its not my habit. Its just happened today. Normally I don't used to wake up early.. But I am trying change it.

When I checked the world clock earlier I noticed the half hour missing in some places as well, Bluedoll. I never learned that in school and I am not quite sure what to make of it.

I only wanted to know what other users are busy doing when I am at the pc participating in myLot at 5 in the morning.

Ok, I am not at my computer at this time usually. But I could be, I mean it is not a rule or anything. Like you I do the computer thing in the morning with a cup of tea. But now it is 1:33pm and here I am typing this. It varies you know. Sometimes in the morning I like doing others things and get to the computer later. Of course I need to wash, comb my hair and such before I get on the computer. There was a time I was not on the computer at all because I was doing other things but happy to say that I'm on mylot again and enjoy discussions again. So why do you want to know what other users are busy doing? Was there a specific reason. I guess I could be on mylot at that time because it isn't very late. I go to bed early seeing that I am up so early but 7:30 is reasonably early. Don't you agree. Do you only particpate at 5 am. I notice every person does mylot a little differently. Well that is reasonable because everyone is different and can use it in any way they please. Don't you agree? Nice topic. When are users busy. Interesting. Well nice to know.

"Make hay while the sun shines" shrinithi as this phase of your life will soon come to an end and the little one next to you will wish you 'good wee morning'which will some times be 2 or 3 in the morning, and not 'good mornternoon'

Already?

Blurp Blurp... Whoooooorrrrrrrrrrr......

Getting up at 5 is not usual but I like it as I am a morning person but I go to sleep early too.

I am just opposite to you. But I want to change it.

You will feel the difference as your mind will be so fresh and alert unlike in the late evenings when I don't think anyone can do much except may be watch tv?
