What was the reason the last time you stayed up way later than normal ? No one has ever accused me of being normal. Therefore I do not know what a normal bedtime is. I often do not get to bed until 7 or 8 am. Some days I have to force myself to go to bed at 6 pm so that I can get up at midnite.
lol ok I gotta ask
Was it worth being tired the next day ? My job rarely requires me to work 8 hours in a row. Most days I might go into work and set things up. Then I can take off for a few hours before I have to go back in. Some days I might go back and forth between the hotel and work several times. I have lots of opportunities for cat naps. In fact I see a cat nap coming up real soon. Gotta love them cat naps.
