Why are you up and on the SDMB so late at night?

I usually post when I’m working on an essay. I’m that kind of writer.

Or I’m bored and not ready to go to bed yet. I should probably be getting to bed… I have 9:00 classes tomorrow…

I don’t sleep.

Ever see that movie, “Real Genius”? Remeber the girl whom never sleeps - she stays up and refinishes her dormroom floor and such?

That’s me.

Dont believe any of these replies, those of us on the boards at this hour are undead. Thass right, baby, we’re vampires.

Well, I’m working the evening shift once again, so I’m getting home about midnightish… by 1 AM, I’m showered, fed, and I get on the SDMB for a little unwindin’ before bed.

I work in a computer lab for my college and well there is nobody in here at night. So it means all kinds of surfing on the net and basically doing whatever I want. Also I’m a bit of a night owl so whenever I get internet hooked up in my apartment I’ll actually probably start posting before I come into work more (which is 2am central time).

I work straight midnights, and when i am off, this is when i am online. Someone needs to be awake to let any of the escaped pets in, Just now i let Julia, evil cat, back in. A little while ago, Katie the dog, came back in.

I work 6PM-2AM…I’m home by 3

Because I just found the board and I swear to God it’s more addictive than crack-cocaine. This site should be monitored by the DEA.

I never sleep.

Somebody shoot me…

My girlfriend is up watching Arrival 2 :rolleyes: Gotta entertain myself somehow.

Can’t sleep. Clown will eat me.

Don’t worry. She’s been watching cheesy sci-fi for the last 2 hours and now she’s going to sleep. You should be safe till morning.

Another vote for “Time Zone”: Many posters here are from all sorts of innnnnnn-tuhr-est-in places: From Europe to the Far East and Aus/NZ.

Cripes.

I’ve been up all night, and I’m still not done with my homework and stuff.

The reason I stayed up all night was that I had to spend the weekend regaining my stability. This means that I spent the vast majority of my time lying on my side. (For those of you who don’t know-- one of the nerves in my right ear is screwed up. This makes it kinda challenging to keep my balance sometimes.)

So I’m behind on everything. And now I’m exhausted. So by the end of the day I’ll have no balance again, which means I’ll have to spend several hours in bed tomorrow–it’s a vicious cycle. I can’t see how I could get out of it; I don’t want to be dizzy, but if I limit my activity to make sure I stay upright, then I won’t get everything done that needs to get done. If I do do everything I need to get done, I get screwed, because I lose my balance. Then I need more time off.

Damned if I do and damned if I don’t.

And my last posts to the “Ask the Exhausted Grad Student” thread make me sound like a moronic strung-out loser.

I’m starting to really hate this. I’m desperately afraid of flunking or of getting even more behind in my research. I’ve gained a ton (well, what feels to me like a ton, anyway.) But that didn’t stop me from eating a donut this morning to stay awake on the sugar high so I could do homework before I start to wobble again…Maybe I should start a Pit thread…

But, oh, well. The point of this post was, here I am, up all night again, due to anxiety and the need to get homework done. Sorry for the rambling.
