I have to do an all-nighter tonight to help babysit a new software upgrade, but notice a whole lot of people viewing the various forums. Makes sense that folks on the other side of the world might be viewing but who else is up and checking in on the fire from 1:45 PT through 4:45 Eastern? And do your parents know you’re awake...?
Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery. Hit the target, all else is twaddle!

I'm one of those folks on the other side of the world. It was 4:45 PM here when you posted. I need to finish a little work, then the boys and I are headed into the city to do some shopping and have dinner. Maybe walk along the beach afterwards. The week long "National Day" holiday has just started. Don't know if we'll do any traveling though, the boys just want to hang around the house.

Some days it takes most of the day for me to do practically nothing...

Up and down all night. I miss the days of being able to sleep 8 hours and getting up. Now it's two to four hours, up for a bit and then back to sleep again.

I'm often up, unable to sleep do to arthritis pain. Thankfully that was not last night. Up at about 4:45 or 5am every day anyway though.

I was up at 3:30, but just now looked at the 'fire'. Today is the opening day of squirrel and bow season. Gonna chase the limb chickens this morning. Got coffee ready for some friends that will show up in a few minutes.

Once in while I get out of bed around 0400 and stay up. Our alarms go off at 0500 anyway

Worked an early day shift for many years.
I've been retired for almost four years, but STILL wake up about 4:00 most every morning.
Nothing like checking out Campfire early.

It does work for a lot of people...for me, it worked...before I started drinking it, I'd wake up 2-3 times a night with what felt like rusty nails through my knees...now I generally sleep a solid 7-8 pain free and won't wake up unless I have to get up to pee...It's not a miracle cure, but it does provide a great deal of relief for many...I'm also told it boosts serotonin levels. I was amazed at the difference it made.

I am up generally every hour on the hour. Been that way for at least the last 20 plus years since I was 30. I haven't used an alarm clock since then no matter what time zone or foreign country. It seems like I just wake up in time.

During the "13hours" the "BitchOfBenghazi" was having one of her "episodes"! Maybe having a late night "huma" sandwich!
