This is me, coming over all insomniac (yes, I have already been to bed. Then I got up again!) and turning computer back on. Hello people who are also awake right now! I envy you cos you're still allowed to be awake at this time, hee!

I might do some writing and then try bed again.

Bets on my average concentration span at work tomorrow? 5 minutes? 3, you say?

Aah, well, the joys of overactive brains, heheh!

What is your *normal* concentration span? I find I generally concentrate for about 20 sec, lose my train of thought, spod for 30 sec go back, manage a cpl of minutes, repeat, and then at some point suddenly catch my wind, concentrate for ten plus hours straight and collapse :) You'll be ok *hugs*

Well, normally I can manage about 10 minutes at a stretch without feeling the need to check e-mail for the umpteenth time. Yesterday, when I'd pulled a similar staying up late stunt to what I've done tonight, I found myself checking e-mail approximately every 2 minutes as 5pm approached.

*hugs back* I'll be fine. I just find that when I'm behind on sleep I don't feel actively tired as such, I just find nothing can keep me entertained for more than a few seconds at a time. I also can't sit still and end up almost doing yoga on the chair in an effort to get comfortable.

Still, one ProPlus with breakfast has no discernible effect on me except making me noticeably more awake and slightly less easily bored. *grins*

Not too badly. Mixing caffeine, spod and checking BBC News. Reasonably productive that way, at least...

They've finished sequencing the rice genome.

Am now home for lunch break - bliss!! :D

*waves* Been up for almost 72 hour straight myself. Off to Cancun in about 3 hours, and figure I will sleep on the plane.

Been there, done that. The key is to catch up when your body tells you it needs sleep! NOW!! fighting it will only land you nose first on the carpet, trust me on this.
