%%- at 3:00 AM, my nephew's msn IM indicated he's online. he instantly got a message from me (that's what Instant Messengers are for, isn't it?):
"wat r u doing at this hour? trying to surpass ur uncle or wat? i'm the greatest insomniac. nobody can ever overtake me."
i'm one of the greatest, if not THE greatest insomniac, of all time.
the night is usually quite young to me at 3 AM. there are times when i go to bed at 7, 8, or even 9 in the morning.
%%- my friends in Arizona told me in recent years it's getting so hot that they only go out shopping for groceries etc at night.
%%- this time of the year in central Texas, it gets dark at 9PM. it's 30C at 6 PM and that's when i get ready to exercise in a nearby park. i'm giving up my insomniac champion title and try to go to bed at 7 PM. London financial markets open at 1 AM our time when i get up to trade till noon.
