60+ hour weeks aren't unusual for me during our busy season, and it really isn't that hard for me. In the summer my dogs still get long hikes most days even then. It is a little harder on me in the winter; during a big push before Thanksgiving, I realized I went five days without seeing the sun at all (no windows in the lab). No family to worry about, which helps.
I don't think I could stand the boredom of working a 'normal' 35 hour week. I would need some more hobbies!
