So Was I BORN a Mutant or did I have the Mutation TRAINED into Me? (the DEC2 mutation)

BRIGHT SIDE tells us a few interesting facts about the body; including 'that the DEC2 gene mutation allows some people to sleep just a few hours a night & still feel great---never sleeping in.' I'll regularly wake up at 3 or 4 in the morning (having been in bed since 10 the night before, falling asleep at about midnight (watching TV until then); and having taken a nap or two the day before (always in the late afternoon, sometimes also in the late morning)).

But I suppose I never really liked 'staying in bed much past sunrise' ...
