76 hours with no sleep and lots of alcohol: deadly combo

got up thursday at 6 in time to rehearse my last exam. Went to take the test, then headed to a restaurant with the entire class to eat and afterwards chitchatted. At night we went out to celebrate and ended up partying all night. We then realised we had to be back in school at 9 am, for a pre-results speech, so we decided to go there straightaway.
That was the 24 hour line.
After that speech, we were expected to say a few words, and then get some feedback from our teachers and professors. When that was finished, we were hungry again, and decided to get some food with the whole group, and spent time in front of a little bar, chitchatting some more. Then most people gave up and went home to sleep. At that point, a friend called me to ask where the hell I was since I had promised to help them put together their LAN-party and there were 6 hours left till people would begin to arrive. So I drove there in a hurry and helped put the network in order, made sure there was enough electricity and prepared some of the food etc. After that, I drove home, got my own PC and brought it over to the LAN of course. I got there, installed it, and played some games for an hour or 3. Then downloaded a few movies, and after that, it appeared to be 10 am
that was the 48 hour line...
So I had breakfast, and after that, I had bar-shift (them lan-gamers need to drink too you know) till the afternoon. I played a bit more, and then had kitchen-duty from till 10 pm. I finally got off and I decided to play a bit more, till I felt really sleepy.
Just when I figured I might as well go to sleep, a buddy said: hey, look what I downloaded off the net last week:
Some kind of vampire movie with Alyssa Milano (that kept me awake ) Don't ask me the name of the movie though.
By that time, it was 6 am again (72 limit) , and I figured I would stay up for 2 more hours, to get the breakfast for the lan from the baker, and make sure everyone got their part. Of course, nobody ever gets up in time during a lan, so it took a little while longer to distribute everything.
When all that stuff was finished, I figured I would go and see how far my download queue was on my PC.
While I was sitting there, I swear to God I saw a chipmunk dance over my keyboard. That's the point where I said: Goodnight, I've had my share
Crashed in the sleeping area and slept through the whole third day of the Lan-party. Got up just in time to get my stuff out of the room before they started cleaning.
