hello kirupans. it is now 6:13 am on saturday morning. i have been awake since 12 pm on thursday. i think thats about 42 hours. wow. am i going to bed now? nope. im going out to get hot dogs. because i have insomia!!! weeee!!! its kinda fun, after the first 40 hours you start seeing funny little gnomes. i call them the flash-a-gnomes cuz they sit on my keyboard and giggle when i flash. and sometimes they dance on it so i get lotsa typos. hehe. my friends are taking bets now to see how long i stay up. whats the longest any of you guys have stayed up? sorry if this is a stupid thread. my brain forgot common sense 13 hours ago. :beam: ---

Nasty things. Just drink coffee. (and if you say it’s not strong enough, you need to try one of my coffees. 🙂 ) sleep deprivation is an interesting experience.

I could have been up for 96 hours for all I know. ---
