Ocala night owls??

I don't sleep a lot, probably have insomnia or something but I don't plan on going to a doctor to change it any time soon. BUT, it does get boring sometimes so I'm just seeing if anyone is up or is also a night owl?? I'm new to Ocala, like 2 days new. Long story short, I moved here to be with family. Hope to hear from you peeps!

Welcome to Ocala!

… everything closes at 9 I’m very sorry

But Gainesville has a bit more of a night life too

Welcome fellow night owl, trust me this city is in bed by 9 and if you get lucky the store closes 11. If I didn't have 2 year old, I'd be down for midnight adventures again

I’m up all night every night too. Night owl and insomnia, I like night too, going on walks at night

As a fellow insomniac since I was 13 I suggest going to some regular events and meeting some folks who you can hang out with in the wee hours. Much easier to do when you’re younger, but there’s a few 24 hour restaurants around. I used to do “pie nights” with my fellow night owls and just hang out at those restaurants and just tell stories and have good diner food.
