Body clock totally screwed - what to do during the night?

    Hey,

    I've somehow managed to start going at bed at about 3 PM and wake up at about 11 PM.

    I don't mind this too much, and don't necessarily want to get a "normal" sleeping pattern back, BUT...

    What can I do during the night?

    Currently I either work (coding etc.), play online games, watch movies, or drink alcohol. I have to do most of the above alone because everyone I know is asleep.

    Can anyone think of anything interesting I can do during the night? (I don't really want to gamble...)

    Thanks.

    oh dear jesus...thats fairly nasty. I would get out of that habit if I were you. Its fine if youre on a bender but not normal practice.

    Hmm get off the freking interweb, definitely. It's a ****ty way to spend the small hours. If I lived alone I would probably spend the time playing guitar. Maybe find an 24-hour gym or something...

    I don't have to be in College before 2 on any day apart from Thursday so I usually get up at 1 or 2 in the afternoon and go to sleep at about 4am. However last night there was a huge party here... so I had to sleep off a hangover that day to prepare for the party. Then I didn't get to bed until 5am, woke up today at 1pm. Managed to sleep from about 6pm til 10pm and now I'm very much so awake. I usually read boards or watch a dvd or something.

    I am in the EXACT same pattern :D. I browse boards a bit, then either go out with some mates our just sit back with a few beers and PWN some punks on Counter Strike :). I say either go out with friends or play the one and only.
    I was meant to go out tonite, but so bloody cold everyone canceled :(.

    The only things anbody should be doing at 3am is stalking the unwary and plotting to overthrow the government.

    I'm working from home at the moment, and naturally (seriously) my body reacts badly to mornings. So I've just found myself turning into a night person. I live with my girlfriend so I feel a bit bad for her, being in our cold bedroom all alone!!

    Thank God for Zaytoon otherwise I'd have died of starvation by now!

    My sleep is screwed up aswell.. Didn't get up til 3pm today sleeping off a huge hangover.. Watched countdown over breakfast lol.. I'm the same as the other guy, 4 days a week my classes in college don't start until like 12pm or 1pm, it's so easy to screw up your sleep when you don't HAVE to go in.. When you're in a 9-5 job or something which I was most of the summer, it just doesn't happen!
