I have this problem too. I don't get tired at night, but I am half asleep at work in the mornings and sometimes even the afternoon. Like today I put my alarm clock on the other side of the room, I didn't feel awake until after 3:45pm. It was my first day getting out of bed at 7am, usually I hit the snooze for an hour or so. It's after midnight now and I am wide awake. I get 4-5 hours of sleep Sun-Thursday (usually 2am or 3am - 7am), and then 11-12 hours of sleep on Fri & Sat. I have found that if I exercise after 9pm, it makes it worse, I would be able to stay awake until 6am or 7am on a non-workday Sat or Sun morning.
It is incredibly hard for me to set a bed time because I feel there is so much stuff to do, and I don't have time to do it all. The Internet is probably the main source of this problem. If I don't have my computer and there is no TV, the time I go to sleep is normal. TiVo fixed my TV problem, but I still use the Internet too much. If I go on vacation and leave all modern technology behind, I'm fine. And this started about the same time I got on the Internet many years ago. These message boards are addicting. So, I'm not sure if this is an Internet addiction problem, or a sleep problem(and I just spend the time I'm awake on the Internet)?
Or should I just move to Hawaii to get on their time zone? I'm not going to complain about that.
