DAE block out clocks with your hands when you know you're up too late at night?
Whenever I'm up at an unreasonable hour, I always do this. I block out the top little clock on my phone, when I walk past the oven clock I put my hand over it from far away, I consciously don't look at the wall clock, I squint my eyes when I put on my alarms on my phone so I can't read the "Alarm set for 5 hours from now" text box.
I'm not sure why I think it will work. Maybe not knowing how late I was up exactly will make me think I slept longer than I did and kinda placebo myself into being more energetic? I don't see any actual positive correlation with my energy in the morning but I started doing it habitually and now can't stop. It's kinda funny and pathetic when I think about it. We're funny creatures, people.
