Thread: why do you stay up late?

Writing poetry or prose late at night usually because that's when my brain works best, I've alway's been a night owl. My mom said she would wake up at night when I was 3 and 4 and see my bedroom light on and she'd walk in and see me playing. She couldn't figure out how I was able to reach the light switch until one night she heard a noise in the kitchen. She got up and snuck into the hall and saw me toddling down it with a ruler from the kitchen drawer. She said I used it to flip on my light and then played around. She decided to sleep in the living room and about an hour and a half later she heard my door open and saw my light switch off and heard me go into the kitchen and put the ruler back......

That is hilarious!

For some reason I write really well at night too.

Or in social situations. I wrote a couple songs (one on my band's EP) at my grandma's funeral. It was more of a get together celebrating her life, and it was outside and there was beer.

Everybody had a Corona for Nana.

Because my mother is not around to make me go to bed early.

fair enough.

what are you usually doing up late though?

Usually because late at night when im too tired to do anything else i get stuck in internet autopilot checking gmail, IM, livejournal, facebook, SA, and torrent sites incessantly without actually registering any of the info on those pages.
