I have noticed this. Meditation slowly seeps outside of the time you devote to it and it colors everyday existence. I first started noticing in my twenties that I could spend an entire night awake, in bed, even sometimes out of it, and not feel deprived in the morning. It's not something I can do every day, and stress has an effect, and my activities are very constrained, bright light wrecks it so I can't use computers or phones. But when the factors all line up, nighttime becomes my favorite part of the day. :-)
