Certain things I can't do at night
 
Hi,
I just checked my work email and saw that a student emailed me at 10:30 on Sunday morning. I want to answer her but I can't until daylight.

I don't want her to notice that I am up at 3:00 in the morning.

One time when I sent out emails to people at work in the middle of the night, a colleague told me the next day to "Take an Ambien."
I didn't say anything to him.

Now I think I'll go check on my laundry.

Now that guy was rude! You could have answered her if you wanted to without having the student wonder. They would probably be happy that they got their answer.:D

I think you are wise to not send an email in the middle of the night if it raises some questions. It is taking care of yourself.

I noticed years ago that when someone from my real life makes a med suggestion it is because they themselves have been on that med.

This colleague and I had a short chat a week or two ago. Somehow I asked him about Ambien and he said that he had tried it for awhile but it didn't help him sleep all night.
I didn't feel free enough to talk more about his issues. He did mention that in his case exercise early in the day seemed to make sleep worse and not better.

It seems like a few of us at work might not be getting enough sleep. I wonder what is going on.
