41st fact about sleep (for me, at least): One doesn't sleep as well when needing to get up early and anticipating the alarm, especially when waking up in the middle of the night, feeling tired, and repeatedly checking to see how many hours there are left to sleep until the alarm goes off.

Then there's my husband -- the ultimate early riser. He can't wait until sunrise so he can get up; he says if he gets up before that without having to, he's afraid I'll think he's weird. Yes, I do think that someone who gets up before the crack of dawn and doesn't have to is weird.
