Night owl

Like Brendan, sleep isn’t really in the cards for me tonight, though not because I think I’d have any difficulty achieving it--I’m damn tired right now, actually--but because I have a 6 a.m. flight back to Chicago which means getting up at 3:30 (as in half an hour from now) to shower and finish packing (and start packing, for that matter). How am I killing time tonight?
