No, not exactly, just a lot less, and maybe I should have added that I had begun working the graveyard shift in late '90, and did so for the remainder of the decade, along with often working 6 "days" a week, including weekends and 10-12 hour shifts, so it completely turned my lifestyle around 180 degrees. I had Sunday nights off, so football was the only sport that I could watch during the day.
I began to dread the Thanksgiving holiday, it was the beginning of our "busy" season for the USPS, and one had to have a lot of seniority to get that night off. Turkey has a naturally occurring chemical compound (can't remember its name) that makes for drowsiness. I had to be awake and alert @ work b/c of the nature of my job, which was physically demanding. My relatives and family, of course, could not "understand" why I always wanted to beg off attending Thanksgiving dinners late in the afternoons at the home of whoever held them each year.
