I work all night
It's great. I've always hated going to bed early PM. I always felt like I was sleeping life away. Now, I sleep when everyone I know is at work and things work out real well. I wake up around noon and can get all my errands done that I wouldn't be able to do with a day shift. I also don't sleep nearly as much when I work all night and I don't even notice.
I'll join the club! I'm not always able to be at a computer at regular times at night so I can't suggest a group activity but this thread is great entertainment for now.
That sleep paralysis idea is pretty believable. I think that's what I get when I'm sick. I have crazy fucked up dreams that I am almost completely conscious of but not aware or able to do anything about. I've had that as long as I remember. Also, when I expose myself to something really new (video game or a job) that I put a lot of time into, then I'll have crazy sleeping but awake dreams about whatever it is.
anyway, it's nice to see I'm not entirely alone at night
