I haven't done it lately, though there was that one time a few weeks ago when I woke up at three a.m. to write about my dream of Davem on the Barrow-Downs Dreams thread.

It's 2.22am over here. So yeah, I think I'm allowed to revive this thread.

I have a question for you other late-nighters:
Are you more likely to stay up late in the summer or winter? (Or doesn't it matter?)

Well, technically, we don't have winter where I live... but I often can stay awake with less effort from March to October than from November to February. The cool and dry Amihan wind, which blows winter to China in our north, tends to keep me to my bed more than the warm and humid Habagat wind, which brings the Philippines its monsoon rains.

But if duty really calls, like last night, I stay awake with the help of many coffees or Cokes and much sweet sticky rice stuff. I tend to write my best papers in the dead of night, mostly because there are less distractions and noise.

2AM here. Funny how alive the Downs is at this ungodly hour...

I finally clocked in at 3... this morning. The Downs was not the most active place.

This thread deserves a lot more attention than it currently receives!

02:35 here in Germany and it's going to be a long night of coffee and learning.

I usually log off at around midnight or one, so I really have no right to be posting in this thread. The latest ever was 2:00 AM once a few days ago.

Summer. Definitely summer. See, in winter, it's dark and it looks like you should be a bed. In summer, at least in Alaska, the sun doesn't actually set all the way. You can still see shiny fuzzes no matter what the time is. So it's really hard to make myself go to bed before midnight at the earliest.
