What advice can you give me to get rid of a bad habit?

I cannot for the life of me wake up at a decent hour. I am very accustomed to stating up late and sleeping in but I recently started my new job (I work 3:30 till 11:00 p.m.) and I have difficulty going to sleep when I get home and waking up when I want to. I want to go t o sleep at 1 a.m. so I can get 8 hours of sleep and be ready to wake up at 9 a.m. This never happens. I come home from work around 11:30 and I’m full of energy. I pop 2 sleeping pills and I straighten up my apartment, feed my cat, call me friends and mom, wash my face, start watching TV. The pills (over the counter) seem to kick in but they never give me that full I-can’t-keep-my-eyes-open effect. Finally around 3 I get so pissed that I’m 2 hours off schedule that I go to bed….and lay there for about 45 min to an hour. I end up waking up around 12:30. My alarm will start going off at 9 and I will push snooze until 12!! I think the pills make me really drowsey also and I have no energy when I wake to get things done!!
One of the reasons I wanted to wake up early is to work out (I have a tredmil in my apartment) but I read somewhere else that exercising at night makes you stay awake longer! Plus I don’t want to go to sleep covered in sweat! (taking a shower would really wake me up and it would take even longer!) Cant affort a ‘sleep specialist’

How do you fall asleep earlier?

I have developed a bad habit where I go to sleep at 2 or 3 in the morning. It is because of school work…I procrastinate and waste my time listening to music…watching tv..using computer (the biggest problem). Even if I finish homework at 12:00, I can’t fall asleep because I’m used to 2:00. I’m not sleepy at school (I wake up at 7)…I’m used to this. But I know its unhealthy.

I come home and take a nap….which is also unhealthy because I have one messed up sleep routine.

How can I fall asleer earlier…and faster? (I sometimes lay in my bed for an hour before falling asleep)

Should I exercise so I am tired and fall asleep or what? Thanks.

My boyfriend has a bad habit?

Ok so on Yahoo 360 ( I asked about this subject yesterday-but this is a differnet question) There are a lot of nude women and men with their chests out. My BF loves to look and laugh and sometimes gaze at the nude people. Sometimes looking at the women while at my house is a bit annoying. I know that its all in fun, but I just feel he should do that at home, when I am not around. I am not so sure why I feel really uncomfortable with it, because we have watched movies with nude people and sometimes I even laugh at the people on Yahoo 360. But yesterday when I told him about my feelings, he said I was being jealous and then tried to say that he doesnt like the people or want them, and most of them live out of state. I am not so sure why I dont like it. I am not a jealous person and do not really feel a threat or maybe I do in a way. This did not result in a huge arguement but I dont want my guy thinking I am some crazy girl. What do you all think?
