during the night

I find that my body naturally wants to sleep between 3 and 4am. Just staying awake - though I was walking around, doing pushups, situps, drinking tea... (non-caffinated... um...) stuff like that. I almost fell asleep on my feet.

Fortunately no one else in my shack was up and alert. It would have looked rather humerous.

A man fighting and loosing against tiredness...

But as soon as 4 hit, wide alert; ready to go for another few hours. Truth be told, here is where the largest trap lies. For if I believe my body and relax in my vigilance against falling asleep; the battle will be lost.
