He checks into the Kremlin at about 12pm for the day's business. However he seldom goes to bed until 2am in the morning. Have about that for a "late riser"? Clearly, the English maxim "early to bed, early to rise" does not have much of a cachet in Russia where the article asserts people are late risers. Waking up early and being a nuisance do not have happen simultaneously and "early" is well relative. And quite seriously do mornings HAVE to be quiet? I guess it depends if you are a morning person or not. I do acknowledge the virtues of a quiet life but then friendliness and courteousness require some interaction. That said, I am happy to have come upon some scriptural support for my introverted personality.

It's so unnatural. I'm 30 years from retirement, and I have to wait for the bus under the stars. I'm too tired to shout at my neighbour at that point. Screw 'em. -A I hate getting up early.

There's probably too many non-early morning-ers in the audience on a Sunday. Meantime, maybe this proverb explains your situation east of you. perhaps you can work on a more subtle approach, a la Johnny Cash: “Hello, I’m Randy Wray” Then the crowd goes wild…..but don’t wait for that.

I couldn't agree more. I'm on vacation this week and have slept as late as possible every day. I've heard all my life from those "Oh you missed the most beeyootiful sunrise" people. But my brain doesn't kick in until around 10:00. So I think I'll keep enjoying the quiet. And stay up late while I can. Steve Hey, Randy!
