Damn you, sleep deprivation!

I've been up for a couple of days now, and I know that I could nod off at any minute if I don't keep myself busy. And wouldn't you know it, tonight happens to be the night that I have the opportunity to see Miyazaki's Spirited Away in a theatre, after months of watching a lower-quality fansub. The movie starts in 1 hour and 15 minutes and I really don't know if I can stay awake for the 2 hour and some-odd minutes duration of it. It's times like these I wish I hadn't squandered my last bottle of energy pills...

Download Finntroll's Jakten's Tid and you'll be awake for some time afterwards.

Sorry to hear it, and good luck making it if you go. This related to your sickness?

*at least you got Spirited Away. Though we got Mononoke, we got it really late. Plus, the four times I went there were maybe a max of five other people one time, the other times it was one other person or empty.

The distribution on Spirited Away really sucked. Disney could have had a very big movie, but they blew it... oh well. Ichabod, I hope you get to enjoy the movie in its entirety. The sheer weirdness of the movie might be enough to keep you awake, though...

If you can get past the first 20 minutes of the movie you should be ok.

Sleep is highly underrated though.

Better drink a lot of water cause staying up for extended periods of time causes premature aging and water prevents this.

Once you get through the first two or three days, not sleeping is easy.
Unfortunatly after a week or so, you go completly crazy, and start seeing wacked out shit.

Sleep is for chumps. :o

I can usually stay up all night, but when morning comes I’m out. That’s about how far I can go..

How do you know that you just didn't drive into a dark alley and hallucinate the whole thing?

I thought of the possibility, but the movie theatre was warm, so I'm sure I was inside. Unless I just passed out on one of those steam duct things hobos sleep on in the winter.

That is probably what happened...cause I have yet to be in a warm theatre.

Guess I live in a cave. Every theatre (including Rave stadium theatres) I've ever been in has been cold.
