And what's even worse about them is when they come way too late in the night. (You have to be the mother of a toddler who doesn't sleep to understand that one. At 2:55 AM, as I type....)
You may be morbidly ammused to hear that my mother swears to me that I slept only two hours out of every twenty-four for the first year or so. And when she went to her doctor to complain, the woman looked at her smilingly and said, "Sometimes, you lose!". For some reason, my mother did Not take much comfort in this.
OTOH, my sister, born eighteen months later, sleeps ten hours a day if at all possible. Of course, that Isn't possible now, since she has three school age children ...
I've used the 'virtual morning' concept for decades; when the sun is up it's morning. That this is often much too early for sane, rational discourse or other ~intelectual pursuits is a given. Many's the job / etc., where I've had to explain gently to them that asking me serious technical questions before 10 AM was a Bad Idea if they wanted a useful, or even coherent, answer.
And that it comes too late at night is an all-too-common function of trashed sleep schedules, like the one I've been in lately ... Sigh.

I've come to view them as not late enough in the night.
