In the wee, small hours of the morning...

Well... I just had my first all-nighter in my college years. Hoping to rid a treacherous migraine, I went to bed last night around 9:30pm. At midnight-ish, I awoke and could not return to my delicious slumber. So, I got up, straightened my room a little, worked on some school projects, wrote a paper, etc. hoping to tire myself with my activity in the wee, small hours of the morning. My plan failed. I did not tire. I finally got sleepy around 5:00am, but I didn't think that it would be worth going to sleep for a measly two hours.

This night may not be a technical all-nighter. After all, I did sleep from 9:30 to 12:00. I didn't even need to complete an assignment for the following day (as normal college students do).

My temporalis muscle is no longer pounding my eyeball out of its socket! (I'm not sure if the temporalis is the pounding muscle of a migraine headache; I was simply trying to make my newly acquired knowledge of anatomy applicable.) Thanks, Mom, for getting some medicine for me! Like mother, like daughter- caffeine, I suppose, awakes me in the night as well.

I vote that was not an all-nighter, since those hours of sleep before midnight are so important. I'm glad that you got at least a few hours.
Maybe we should check out those headaches of yours.
Love ya!
