I’m a Mutant!

Those following along at home are probably already aware that my recent attempts at becoming an “early bird” had what can best be described as “mixed results”. On the one hand, I really enjoyed eating breakfast as the sun came over the hills, on the other hand my productivity went off the rails in a Charlie Sheen-esque display of going-off-the-railsery…

Since the end of last week, I have reverted to what I now accept as my default pattern of late nights, getting up just in time to get to the office and “power naps” on the bus. Productivity is back up and, interestingly, I have noticed that flashes of inspiration and moments of clarity have also returned. I’m not sure why or how, and I hadn’t even realised those “light bulb” moments had even diminished until today. Nice to have them back anyway!

I’ve also stumbled on this interesting article from 4 years ago, that suggests that night owls are actually mutants. OK I know it’s not as glamorous as being Wolverine, surely it must count for something though?
