Way Wrong — Time to Go to Bed (Jerz’s Literacy Weblog)
A new media researcher asked me to provide him with a few paragraphs on a subject I know well, for a proposal he’s planning to submit soon.
I was going to dig out a couple of canned paragraphs this weekend, but one thing led to another, and I started tidying up a few loose ends and looking up a few more leads.
It’s now 5am, and I’ve churned out about 7 new pages, with 2 pages revised from other projects.
I hate being sick, because the pills I take to get me through bathtime and bedtime stories perk me up so much I can’t get to sleep. Oh well… at least my insomnia was productive tonight.

I always wonder how effective an all-nighter is when work is involved, but I am not one to subject myself to it because of its potential negative side effects. However, I believe if our bodies found a way to overcome a need for sleep and hunger, then I would sign-up without hesitation because then I could work non-stop without penalty.
