I'm a man, but I can change, if I have to.I guess. 
So yeah, I sit here, watching the 43 hour of wakefulness pass, before I finish my homework, and I ask myself, am I crazy yet? Well they say if you are awake for three days straight, you are legally insane, so I'm getting there... hehe... gah. Tierd. No caffine yet, saving that for tomorrow afternoon, so I don't bugger up in the labs. We are going to be using guns, so it could be dangerous. Thats if I even get there. I have to bike a bloody hour in the snow to even get there. Well, at least it's only ~30 now, not the friggen better than 50 below that I had to work through last week. It was so bloody cold that my bike lock-up cord/chain/spiraled wire freaking broke. In two. I was like, oh fudge, it's gonna be a toughie getting home today. I wonder if there is any rules against just living in the university, without being in rez... I did it for a couple days last semester, but I was this --><-- close to being caught by the lunchladies... But in my defense, the meals are bloody expensive, and I am, therefore I take. It works. I need to build a hovercraft...
Anyway, any of you got any stories of insomnia/hardcoring it for a couple days on end? Share the joy, the agony, and the fun fun accidental blackouts and the where the fudge am I and who the fudge are you, and why don't I have a hangover mornings... Best not to think about it, you might get a headache.

I think I'll regret this after I take a snooze in... checks time, 22.5 hours, but I'm not sure.

Toodles.

keep it real 
i have no idea what youre talking about, but one summer me and my best bro tried to stay up for 5 straight says. i think the second night of no sleep we WALKED to meijers (about 5 miles, i have no idea how far that converts to in actual measurement) in the middle of the night and we ended up buying the most useless crap like a pack of english muffins because i guess the whole insanity thing was starting to come into play. then outside meijer they had these little plants sitting outside the door for people to buy so i picked one up and carried it to blockbuster and the next day they found a plant of some sort mixed in with their movies from the drop box.

You don't have a car? You should look into them. They're very handy.

I and two other friends stayed awake for 3 days straight once...we didnt go anywhere or do anything except workout some...but i have to admit by the third day we were seeing things and forgeting to do things...we all collapsed into sleep somewhere around 4 hours from it being 3 days...we woke up and realized noneof us had pants on...

Are you sure your nocturnal? Maybe you just operate on a 48 hour day. That's what my 63.5 hours of nirvana is forcing me to do now. It's quite strange to not be able to go to sleep. Frustrating in fact.
