I'm at work and my head is beyond groggy. Got about 3 hours of sleep. Anyone have any tricks to waking yourself up or being generally less miserable?

P.S. Speed or cocaine is not an option.

P.S.S I wasn't sleeping with rilla all night long.

Yeah. Same thing ahppened to bme from staying up to watch teh WC Final (it was on at 3:00 in the morning here).

Make sure to drink lots of water. Have a breakfast that's abotu 1.5x bigger than your normal breakfast.

Snack during the day. Not trash like chocolate bars, or chips or anything like that (although they will do if you can't get anything else), but cookies or something with at least some carbs in them.

DO NOT HAVE A BIG LUNCH. That will FUCK YOU UP. Have a light lunch and snack thorughout the day.

Also, if you are able to, see if you can sneak somewhere and have a 20 minute nap. That will set up you up for a few hours. However, I know not everyone has this option, so if you can't do that, keep your self engaged with projects, not monotonous crap, if you can avoid it.

That should do it. Good luck.

i'd suggest eating a big turkey lunch and laying down on a couch to do your work instead of however you preform.

Smithers, use the amnesia ray.
You mean the revolver, sir?
Precisely.

Make sure you wash it down with a glass of warm milk.
