burning the midnight oil

I'm not a night person. I can stay up reasonably late, but I prefer mornings and afternoons.

That being said, last night, I stayed up till 4AM to finish my unit plan.

I've learned a few things through this.
1. Do unit plans in advance.
2. I'm surprisingly chipper in the morning regardless of sleep.
3. After 2AM I lose the ability to type coherent sentences. I often miss verbs.
4. There are no such things as naps after midnight.

The key to getting through such nights is to have friends who are also up late doing the same project. Here is a snippet of Lauren and I's text conversation around 2AM

Now. OFF TO BED I GO! :D
