For me, the best time of the day is when it's ending and transitioning into night. I enjoy sharing my time with many nocturnal creatures such as frogs, cats, and deer. In my house, morning is a sinful word and the thought of an alarm clock bringing me out of a perfectly fine slumber, evokes images of pain and suffering.
For as long as I can remember I've always been more productive in my thinking and cognitive abilities later at night. As odd as it may sound to some people, I am more tired in the morning than I am in the evening. I always thought to myself, if only the world could shift a few hours ahead, allowing the day to start around noon. This would suit me perfectly. No more struggling to roll out of bed and forcing myself to start moving. First thing in the morning, I sometimes feel like a rusty old machine that has been left outside for years to weather.
I'm sure there are a million theories as to why many people like me enjoy their evening time over the early birds. You could also enlist the help of a scientist to babble on endlessly about the physiological reasons why people are like this. But in my opinion, I think people that are more productive and awake at night (rightfully named night owls) just enjoy their alone time, and feel like there are less distractions. No one is ringing your door bell or calling you to tell you about what happened on their favorite show that you have absolutely no interest in. No barking dogs, car alarms or lawn mowers running. For the most part it's just you and the occasional frog call, or sound of a cricket.
