That's so funny! Me too!! I got up at 6 this morning, rather than the 5:30 am of yesterday. I felt like I slept in. If I could ever sleep until 7 or 8, now that would really be sleeping in for me. It rarely happens. I've never had to use an alarm clock in my life.

My husband and I laugh at our "senior" status too. We're up at the crack up dawn and we go out to dinner mid-afternoon or at least by 5 to beat the dinner crowds. It has it's rewards though. It really is nice to relax with cocktails and have much better service. Maybe we should move to Florida??


I always think about the Seinfeld episodes where Jerry is visiting his parents in Florida. They wake him up at something like 6 am and tell him that they wanted to let him sleep in.
