According to my own theory, it doesn't matter either way 'cause I'm probably awake in either case.

Of course. I'm also bringing my seminar to a variety of cities across the US, so you should check my website to see if I'll be stopping somewhere near you soon.

well I ended up staying up all night. I didn't plan on doing that. I fired up my game of fallout: tactics. Not much story in that game, but that action is fairly cool.

I am a night owl. I rarely stay awake for more than 36 hours straight (i.e sleepless night + sleepless day after), but I can stay up very late at night. To do this, I only have to start up an interesting game of Civ3, any game that can catch my interest because I haven't played it for long / at all, or to browse 'Poly.

I used to stay up all night, on occasion. Then, playing some game one night, at around 3:00 AM, I suddenly got really cold and started shaking uncontrollably. I pretty much stopped staying up intentionally after that.

So, to keep this thread from simply dying, talk about your staying up late stories.
I once stayed up all night for my wife so I could switch out VCR tapes that were recording all the hubbub surrounding Diana's funeral.

I've worked through the night plenty of times... once had a 47 hour "shift."

I was up all night the night before my birthday... had a headache and insomnia, never a good combination.

I retract my earlier statement - staying up all night is NOT fun!

I shaved my armpits out of boredom, my armpits smell a whole lot better now (if i stick my fingers in them it actually smells like deo, instead of sweet!) but damn, what an irritatating feeling

I vote Space05us as having the most misleading posts. First crack, and now this?!

VH1 keeping you up? Isn't that an oxymoron?

At least when I stayed up last night, I did something fun.
Was gaming.

I must add that I felt more confident and manly when I looked in the mirror (while nude) after shaving. And gayer.
