My mom used to have to sit outside my bedroom because I would keep getting up when I was supposed to be taking a nap. I used to have a pretty good internal clock. I would often wake up just before my alarm was set to go off. That's not the case anymore. I think a lot of that has to do with getting up at 4 in the morning. There ain't nothing that can prepare you for that!

I need to return to my super early mornings the likes of which I did in the past. It is so damn hot during the day this time of year it would make more sense to take advantage of the very early morning even if that lead to a nap in the afternoon. Seriously, it is insta-sweat hot here now.
That's probably the smart way to do it. I sweat at the drop of a hat, so I can only imagine how horrible it is. That's a great big no thank you from me.
sometimes I look at where I have chosen to spend my adult life (nothing has forced me to stay here) and wonder "what the hell is wrong with you?" I have never been a hot-weather kind of person and even when I was very athletic I always had a hyper-sweating sort of disorder. Seriously, I even once got a prescription to curb the sweating because I was getting embarrassed in public about it. So it really makes no sense that I choose to live in some of the hottest places on earth.
There is some talk around here about "acclimation" and normally this is voiced by people that haven't lived outside of their home country nearly as long as I have. I think it is a myth. You don't get used to it being this hot, you are either born with the correct genes to deal with it or you are not. I have Nordic/Germanic bloodlines, I was never going to be the right person for this climate :)
Yes, that sounds quite similar to me. I'm that white guy who is melting when the temp gets above about 85 every single time.
