Good morning...or evening...or afternoon...

[Haids1987]

Hi everyone.  So it's approximately 3:22 a.m. here in the Emerald City (Seattle area, for the uninitiated  ) and I'm wide awake.  Part of the reason for this is because I'm recovering from a bout of strep throat and slept for a good hunk of the day, so when bedtime rolled around I didn't feel like taking advantage.  Another reason is because it's daylight savings today and I kind of like to stick around and defy the hour we will lose tonight.   

So anyways, here I am.  I've already built a house on the Sims 2, finished the book I was reading, painted my fingernails, Googled "geek tattoos" (which I strongly recommend doing, you'll find some weird stuff!), run a full virus scan on my computer, and--this I totally expected to knock me out!--watched three quarters of Titanic!   

Please, enlighten me, in the wee hours of the morning when YOU can't sleep, what do you do?  I believe that I might actually try sleeping here in the near future, but I still don't think I'm ready for that.

EDIT: It is now 4:43 and I will attempt to go to bed.  I still feel pretty wide awake, but the idea that some people get up for work at this time is making me a little ill...

I stayed up till 2:30.

Man, I wish that it was still that early.  Where are you?  In the US?

'Nother edit: It's 5:58 now.  I was laying in bed for a good hour before I decided my attempts were futile.  I suppose I'll see the sunrise again before I actually sleep.  This sucks.

I;m on the east coast of the us.

[Haids1987]

Ah.  So it's a whole--what, two hours earlier over there?

I ended up staying awake until 8:22 a.m.  I finally crawled back into bed and only woke up a couple hours ago.     Ugghh.  My dad said to me, "It's nights like that when you need a shot of something!" and gave me Ny-Quil.

Yeah, I think it is a bit earlier.
