I am tired. As I write, it's 4:55 am.
I would normally be sleeping, but my grandson and wife have been up because of their insomnia.
Now, they've gone to bed, and I am awake.
Thanks bunches family.
And the problem is I tend toward the graveyard shift at the best of times.
Oh a long day of napping coming up I can see.

Actually, the circadian rhythm is fine if it's not screwed with.
I believe there are three types of people.
There are the day shift people who do the majority of work that makes society work.
The vast majority are daytime dominant.
A second group work best in the afternoon and evening.
Not as large a group, but still lots of people.
Mostly blue collar workers, they usually work in plants that make things, or in service industries.
Then there are the graveyard people.
They are clean up crews, preparation workers, delivery drivers, watchmen ect.
All are essential, and all have a place.
And our world would be happier if we just found our place in it.
