The: What the heck are you doin' up at this hour thread. - The Orange Mane

I was just sitting here asking myself that question, and I figured it might turn into one of those "classics".

For those who peruse these pages after midnight.

I'm up studying for a roadway design and spec test tomorrow. I must have lost my friggin mind.

I work nights four days a week....10 hour shifts. I get paid $$$ for sleep deprivation and have been doing it for well over a year now.

I did the night shift decades ago during powerplant shut-downs. 7-12s for two months straight. All the oT was totally nuts, but the $$$$ were nice.

I was up late trying to get laid online, no dice.

How the hell do you go about "getting laid" online?

You pay for it in many more ways than one....I know.

Here's my theme song

Man, you had better do it for the rest of your life. Because your days of being normal are over (relatively speaking, of course

).

I worked at the Utah State Mental Hospital when I was in college. I worked graveyard shift, as it allowed me to get a lot of studying done. I did it for a little over a year, and my body just permanently adjusted. Now, I could easily stay up all night, any night. I don't ever sleep without Ambien - been taking the same dose for over five years. And I am one miserable SOB most mornings. I don't really mind this, except for the fact that most people look at being a night owl as some sort of personal weakness. I have had lots of people in business make comments about it. Douchebags.

It's only been 17 years, though - so maybe I'm still adjusting.

Actually, there's a very good chance that my night time hours are over in two weeks.
