5 a.m. on fire is a whole personality. Brain fully lit while the world is still on dimmer.
Frustrating, yeah — you're ready to build and the house is asleep. Some early risers I know keep a "capture now, act later" notepad by the bed so the fire doesn't have to be dampened, just parked till daylight. Your energy isn't a flaw; it's an early clock looking for a landing pad.
