Judging by the reasons the "5-6 hours" voters provided, this looks like an obvious save attempt. All the late voters deserve to be looked at, and bea especially looks the scummiest for tying it up.

You always think I'm bad, but by my count only one of us that was a super baddie who killed a bright and noble civ and was a jerk about it by writing a post that was sure to make it known solely to that person who did the killing as it was a pm revealed story.

That reminds me. I owe a newt........

Truth. Even though I've learned to function in the morning, my favorite time is always between midnight and sunrise. It feels like *my* time .

Preach.

I am miserable as a 9-5er. I will do it, but all the agencies know that after hours is when I will say "yes" to a gig every time.

My thyroid and I are having a violent disagreement about how it should work. It has made my Insomnia reach a level that is crazy making. It now is taking about FOUR hours for me to go down. FOUR. I thought two was bad, but I was able to set a routine that really worked but now.... almost nothing except The Drugs work. I have muscle relaxers from the car accident last year, and one of those with two advil pm drop me like a ton of bricks. But it is almost not worth it as i am so groggy the next day because of it. :| :mad:

It has also changed HOW I sleep, I was suuuuuch a light sleeper before. Now I guess I am sleeping like regular people? I feel pretty great after I get up, but I now have to set three alarms to make sure I get up. This weekend I slept through an emergency call, and as the on call emergency coordinator over the weekends that is NOT. GOOD. I have the most obnoxious ring tones and voicemail sounds but noooooo. Riiiiight through the whole thing until it was way too late. :fist:

When I was younger I used to be a night owl. I even had a night job. But over time, I started to find that no matter when I went to bed, my eyes just popped open & stayed open earlier & earlier as the years passed. Now the seem to have stabilized at 5:30 AM. So I get to see that sunrise too, most of the time. My circadian rhythm just kind of reset itself :shrug:

Gonna pick the Bronze Age ( I want to see those early inventions invented), the 1940's (<3 FDR, and my nation reinvented itself amidst war) and 100 years from now, long enough for "Wow what progress" but not long enough for "Are these still even people or what??".

Teehee. :biggrin:

Yeah, I think you owe me one after that one. But heck, if we have the ability to write our own Night Posts, I wanted to take full advantage of it.

I can't remember, when was the last time you were mafia?
