Revenge Bedtime Procrastinator

Do you see the clock creeping towards your bedtime and you think, no, no I just want to stay here for a few more minutes, that turn into 30.

That’s pretty much me in a nutshell and a Real Simple article this month has a name for it – Revenge Bedtime Procrastinator. I delay sleep to carve out time for myself.

Now, I’m not so bad that I “blow off bedtime, then wake up exhausted” – well, not enough that I hit the snooze button – but I do creep upstairs a little later than I should and then get cranky because I still have to brush my teeth and wash my face when all I want to do is get into bed and read.

Anyone else feel like a Revenge Bedtime Procrastinator?
