Because aliens are actually demons
So, I normally wake up at least once every night, get up. go to the bathroom and fall right back to sleep. I don't always wake up at the same time, but I have noticed that when I wake up at 3:30, I am not able to go back to sleep (that's why I'm up at 5 am on a freaking Sunday).
A coworker mentioned to me that in Chinese medicine they believe the time you wake up is connected to some part of your body. E.g., if you wake up at 2 am, your pancreas is trying to tell you something. So, I did a quick Google search to see what the Chinese think about my waking habits. I didn't find anything from them, but I did find this: ALIENS.

Other potential reasons I'm waking up at 3:30 am
It is best for psychic communication
My body fat percentage is too low (I'm SURE that's it)
OMG does this make me a wierdo?

I wish I remembered the source, but I read an article semi recently that said the ideal sleep pattern is not actually 8 hrs of uninterrupted sleep, but 4 hrs, a brief awake period, then 4 more hours of sleep. There was a bunch of stuff in there about how other cultures used this time for quiet reflection or sex. And in modern times, most people do wake up naturally after about 4 hrs, but many then worry about it, start stressing, and have trouble going back to sleep. It was nytimes or CNN, not some whacko article.
May have been this one:

Okay, reading those message boards truly freaked me out! What a bunch of nutters.
I always take note of the time because I like to know how much longer I get to sleep.
PP, thanks for the non-alien link It was an interesting read. I'll have to start keeping track of when I got to sleep to see if I wake up 3-5 hours later.

Husbands should be like Kleenex: Soft, strong, and disposable.
