My First All-Nighter

Well, rather than risk catching whatever illness my roomate has recently been dealing with, I decided after my 3 o'clock Cities of the World class that I would spend the afternoon, evening, and possibly the next day with Erica rather than going back to my dorm. Well, one thing led to another and pretty soon it went from being 4 to 8, from 8 to 11:30, from 11:30 to being 3...and so on and so forth. So now here it is, 7:06 am, absolutely zero sleep and little-to-no signs of deathly tiredness...my first all nighter accomplished. The birds are chirping and the sun is rising as I type this...the first dawn I've seen in many many months. It is wonderful that you have to stay up the entire night to expeience that.

It was really nice just talking to Erica for hours like old times, I feel as if I havent had that legitamate and "real" contact in quite some time, at least since the OPUS trip (I love that carefree feeling of just staying up all night talking about whatever happens to come across your mind...and suspending all thoughts about tomorrow until...well, tomorrow). Good stuff. Anyway, what next, I don't know. Maybe we'll go to sleep at like 9, just in time to miss the game (which was moved to 11:30 because of Hurricane Shitface Jeanne)...and get up late tonight, after the hurricane has already arrived. It is just a shame that I have no clothes with me (in case I get trapped here because of the storm) and even if I were to make it home, I have no clean underwear whatsoever. Oh well.

Bad news....I just yawned. I will make it through this! I think Erica might be fading fast too, despite her cravings for Steak and Shake (too bad we are trapped on campus because of the evils of Gator Football)....ah lovely. Well that is all for now, I will post something more later.
