It's time once again for that ritual known as "resetting my sleep schedule". If you've known me long enough, you've heard this all before. For everyone else, it goes like this: (1) Realize that waking up at 3pm is no way to live. (2) Stay up all night, drink lots of coffee as the sun rises, put on a (outwardly) happy face and go about your day. (3) Force yourself to stay awake until a somewhat reasonable hour of night. (4) Wake up and compete with the normal people at the really long line at the coffee shop. (5) After a couple of months, eventually drift back into the late night routine when only the crazies are awake.

If I were one of those people who identified as having a "disorder", I'd say it sounds a bit like delayed sleep phase disorder, which apparently is a real sleeping disorder, and not some thing I made-up to justify my bizarre sleep patterns. But I've always felt that 99% of disorders are crap anyway.
