I've been noticing that my brain really kicks into gear only after 3pm or so. Which kind of sucks on two counts:

• By that time a better part of the day is gone, especially when it comes to work.
• 2pm is when US east coast folks come into office and meetings commence. So I end up spending the time when my brain wants to be productive by sitting around in video calls :(

And I can't just say "fuck it, I'm waking up at noon" because the world is built for early birds and something would force me up early one way or another. That, and my oncall shifts start at 5am.
