Circadian rhythms
Simone received an unexpected call from her aunt. Although by age standards, Simone's aunt could be considered elderly, she has somehow managed to drag her spirit intact and kicking through the decades. Her body, nursed through yoga and medidation as well as a vegetarian diet well before either became in style, is not far behind her spirit.
"So what's new?" Asked Aunt J.
"We've been eating a vegan diet," Simone said. "Plus we're getting up really early - at 3 am. I get lots of things done in the wee hours."
There was a silence on the line. "Three am? But dear, that's all wrong. Your circadian clock dictates that at 3 am, your bladder empties. You must be lying down for this to happen. Please stay in bed until 5 am."
Oh?
Oh.
