Are You Afraid of the Dark?
I’m a morning person. I get creeped out by the middle of the night, and am always amazed at people who are at their best at 2 AM. Take vampires. (No really, please.) I’m sure this is hard-wired into us. My mother remembers that by the time I was 6, all she needed to do was stand by my bedroom door and I’d wake up, ready to go. It has been years since I’ve slept alone at home, and by alone I mean, without humans or pets (which speaks more to the pets than the humans.) I like the comfort of sharing the darkness with a friend.
