And also, the night after sucks even more… because you feel like you still have much more work left to do for that day… but you know for a fact you’ll be more productive if you sleep it off at start fresh the next morning.
What ends up happening when I pull all-nighters is that either I crash and burn, or I either crawl and make it through the 48 hour mark. However, when I do crawl through that 48 hour mark, it’s usually a caffeine-induced insanity.
I really need to stop doing this. It’s not too healthy. And I’m sure the 2 liters of Dew I keep on forcing myself to drink isn’t all too great for the workout regimen either.
Time for some fruit. Yummy strawberries.
I’m currently trying to balance work and “play”, meaning blogging and learning more Ruby. I promise to have some good content tomorrow. Worthy of the 22 feeds subscriptions that somehow magically appeared yesterday night.
… under my butt.
It’s been a while, no? Lots of things little and big things have been keeping me busy.
I have no idea where this energy came from. And no, it’s not the Dew. I haven’t touched that stuff since the all-nighter I pulled on Thursday/Friday. (oh man, let me tell you, that was one awesome 3 hour nap in between…)
I think I might have to attribute it to the change in weather. It’s finally getting warm, and I finally don’t have to worry if I won’t be able get my car out of the heaping mountains of snow. I can finally step outside without feeling like I need to figure out the optimal path through warm heated buildings.
It might also have to do with the Issue(s) that have been plaguing my mind. Lots of relational issues have been resolved (at least, on my side). I’m not sure if I’m going to touch on this more publicly, but just know that a certain peace have entered into my heart, enabling me to let go of things that should have been let go and to learn things that should have been learned. Thank you, to those that have helped and listened and prayed. To sum up, just know that I’m continuing to fight the good fight, and striving to grow through it all.
It also might have to do with how my sister is now going to be coming to UIUC for her pre-law/philosophy major. I actually have to start looking for a small house/condo for us to live in… (*ahem*whichmeansImightbeherenextyear*ahem*) and I also have a feeling that our family might be looking to move towards Illinois, whether it be here or up in Chicago. Long story short, things have been set into motion.
Thank goodness for the realization that it’s time to keep moving, to keep forward.
Lots to plan tonight… if I don’t watch 300. Yikes.
Code Monkey
Code Monkey like Frito
Code Monkey like Tab and Mountain Dew
Code Monkey very simple man
With big warm fuzzy secret heart:
Code Monkey like you
So silly, and so true. I’ll let the Fritos pass, but… Tab? What male programmer in their right mind drinks tab? I thought it was a feminine drink? It should read like this:
Code Monkey like Fritos
Code Monkey like BAWLS and Mountain Dew

Code Monkey like you
Aw Yeah.
Tee hee.
For some reason, I’m having to forcibly change my sleep cycle again.
Less and less will I be able to wake up at 5:30… instead, I’ll be coding UNTIL then.
Yeah yeah, I know. JK to the extreme!
I woke up at 5:30 AM, unable to sleep.
And Here I am, at 5:41 AM, the next morning.
Yeap, the first all nighter of the new year.
First Mountain Dew induced all nighter in quite a while. First video game (co-op splinter cell) induced all nighter in an even longer while.
For those of you keeping score… I count my days based on when I sleep. If I pull two all nighters in a row, that 48 hour period indeed becomes one day… and so I’m not late on my daily posting.
It’s just that, right now… my mind isn’t wanting to function properly.
Quick, to bed!
