Are more of us kinksters MPs or NOs?

 
Other potential thoughts:
 
Does your time-of-day personality match that of your S.O.(s)?
 
If so, is that the best situation for the two (or more) of you? 
 
If not, does it cause problems?
 
Would you try to change it about yourself or him/her?
 
Thank you for playing!

I tend to be a bit of both...a night owl and a morning person.  It probably started when I was going to high school and working the 3-11 shift at the beef plant.  After I joined the service, Uncle Sam certainly did his best to screw with my perception of time.  Then college and the early morning classes and late night study hours....it has all combined to make me a person who functions pretty well at either end of the day.  I have to admit a preference for my fun times to be in the evening though...I can and have played during the day but I just feel more energized with it at night.

i'm both a MP and NO - especially if i'm covering a show on a school night.  some nights i'm up 24hrs straight and then sleeping while the UMs are in school.

my dual time-of-day fits wonderfully with my dominants - i get up early to chat with Daddy in the morning and then chat late at night with SO. it doesn't cause a problem when i'm working late night.  since SO is 2hrs behind, i'm able to chat with him while on my way home. when i get home, i leave a message for Daddy with the time i got home.  it's my way of telling Him i came home safely and nothing happened to me.

Definitely a night owl.  Life might have forced me to wake up early and pretend i am really alive before noon... but in reality, i am just a puppet to all the caffeine.

odd... you work graveyards... so do not see the sun, while i work IN a graveyard... and am forced to see the sun.  The universe certainly has a warped sense of humor... and timing.

I'm definitely a morning person. I'm out of bed by 7 at the latest, even on the weekends. And I don't even have to go to a job. I don't have a SO to compare against yet, but when I have one I'll let you know.

My dad always went to bed at about 8 or 9 and got up at 4 to take a drive before he went to work. My mom would stay up really late reading and then struggle out of bed at 7 to get us to school. We used to joke that they would give each other a kiss as Dad was getting up and Mother was heading for bed.

I am a night owl by preference, a day person through necessity. Being an adult is taxing, in moments.

I am such a morning person that my brain goes to bed around 9-10PM wether the rest of me does or not. I am sick, weird, totally perverted. I wake up between 4 and 5 AM every day without an alarm clock regardless of wether I have to go to work or not.

Now, to further explain.........I have been known on occasion to take a nap. Sometimes they are just 1/2 hour or so, as early as 7AMish on the weekends. I've even been known to take another in the afternoon for 10-20 minutes. And even worse, I've been known to fall asleep on the sofa as early as 7:30PM for an "eye rest".  I really function best on 8-9 hours of sleep. Last night I didn't get to really crash until just after midnight. Yet I still was up at 4:45AM. Needless to say I am feeling rather zombieish today. Fortunately I carpool and can nap on the way home before running dogs, feeding horses, feeding dogs, running them again........and then yesssssssssss, blessed BED.

I just could never do a nightshift job. I tried and it's just not for me.

We are both morning people.  Seem to function the best that way.  Last time we were up until midnight was New Years eve...which isn't that long ago...but considering the time before was probably New years eve as well..

I dislike sleep and resent the necessity for it so, while I know I do require it, I'm actually rather grateful that the last 18 months or so, as I wade through this perimenopausal time of life, has blessed me with chronic insomnia. I sleep, perhaps 2 to 3 hours on average with a 6-7 hour stint every several days, never take naps (although Himself naps daily) and pretty much hate crawling into bed for .. sleep.

I am a natural night owl who has been forced to submit to morning person behavior.  I have an hour's commute to work, so I have to be up and out the door, ready for the idiots who share the road with me early in the morning.  I have always been a night owl and resent having only the weekends to follow my body's natural rhythm of sleep/wake.  (sigh)

I am a night owl who has been forced into a horrid ill-fitting uncomfortable morning person outfit that burns my skin, cuts the soles of my feet, and pokes dull needles into my eyeballs.

Night person all the way.  Sleep is a waste of time (ha!) but I usually fall asleep around 2-3AM and wake up at 10AM.  Master is shifting my schedule, though - midnight to 7AM and it's killing me....seriously. LOL.

I am definately a night person.  One of my boys is an early morning enthusiast who will down 3 cups of coffee and chatter non-stop.  (Gads!!) The other is more adapted to my nocturnal nature.
