If you could sleep as late as you wanted. You know not have to go to work, get the kids ready or take out that smelly nasty garbage before the truck passes your house. What time would that be? For me it would be 9:30ish 10:00 am. I could stay up past midnight and not be tired the rest of the day after I woke up.
What about y’all?
9 a.m.
Which is when my son and I would wake up during summer vacation.
It would most likely be 6:30 am. As it is now I get up everyday at 2:00 am. I go to bed at 10’ish so I’d get plenty of sleep that way.
Are you sleep deprived. Sheesh how can you operate on 4 hours?
Yesterday I work up at 8:52 pm. The day before it was 9:24 pm.
I’d like to wake up a little earlier than that.
how about, “if you could get up as early as you want?” I seem to have a problem that no matter when I go to sleep I can’t seem to get out of bed before 10ish without an alarm. Seriously, I could go to bed at 11 and not get up until 10. If I could I’d get up at 6AM, so I could have breakfast and read the paper in the morning sunlight.
While I’m wishing I’d also like a pony.
The ideal wake up time for me is between 9-10:00AM. I’d occasionally wake up earlier but the 9-10AM time slot is really my wake up comfort zone. Unfortunately I have to wake up between 6-6:30 AM every weekday.
When I was done sleeping.
That way I could go to bed when I was tired and wake up when I wasn’t tired any more. And if I was doing something and wanted to stay up a little later, I’d be able to sleep later, too.
It’s really a shame, ain’t it? Never getting all the sleep you really need. Sucks how sleep has become a luxury.
~7 or 8
I get up now at 5:30…anyway, sleeping late doesn’t work
for me because if the sun is up, I’m up
7:00am. That way I see the morning, and can do some light reading before work.
Lucky for me that is when I do wake up nearly every morning.
Probably about 9. Any later than 9 and I get a headache.
Two hours later every day, with a corresponding going-to-bed two hours later every night. I need a 26-hour clock. Maybe I’m Bajoran.
I won’t know the answer till I retire. I think I’m a morning person by nature - I don’t enjoy being up late at night. But even if I have a late night on the weekend, I’m up early because the idiot dogs have to be let out.
Wild guess - 7-ish. That’ll be sleeping in compared to getting up at 5 like I do now.
Definitely 10:00. As it is now, I usually go to sleep between 1:30 and 2:30 a.m., and I have to be up by 7. But on weekends, I generally am up by 10:00.

Most people are on a 16 hours up / 8 sleeping cycle, which works out nicely for getting up at the same time every day.
When I’m allowed to set my own sleep times, I get on a 27 hour schedule. 17 up / 10 asleep. So every day I move a little bit further around the clock. I think I could also do a 24 up / 12 asleep cycle, which would be interesting.
If I had the choice, I would never sleep. There are things that I could fill all those wasted hours with.
Left to my own devices, I seem to get up at about 9:00 am if I goto sleep between 1:00 am and 3:00 am.
Seriously - I am a late sleeper… 10-11am when I was in college & had nothing to do that day. Gimme at LEAST 8 hours to be a happy camper.
Mr Pol’s an early riser tho - even on weekends he’s up by 7, usually.
He’s learned over the years… sometimes he wakes up grumpy, other times he lets me sleep… 
A few hours after sunset-3 AM. I’m the penultimate morning person - I metabolically collapse after about 9 o’clock. I instinctively get sleepy when the sun sets, too. About an hour after the sun sets, I feel the need to shower (depending on the time of year - summer, I often shower during daylight hours).
'Course, if I had my choice, I’d take my sleep in 3-hour intervals - an hour and a half asleep, three awake, hour and a half asleep…
About an hour and a half after I do now - Around eight-thirty. It’s still early enough that you have time to do stuff with your day.
Well, during the summer, when I don’t have to work at any set time, I generally get up at about 8 or 8:30.
But I don’t really mind getting up at 6, most mornings, as long as I’ve gotten to bed at a decent hour the previous night.
