One of the unfortunate things about being a nurse is the need to do night duty. Fortunately, one of the perks of having to forcibly readjust your sleeping pattern is that it allows you to do otherwise antisocial and useless activities. Enter CoD. Generally in my house it is a competition between myself and boyfriend for CoD time which is juggled in between crucial tv programs such as Rush and Neighbours (That's right, judgers!!!). But not tonight. Tonight I am preparing my body for night duty.
Since I would have to be awake tomorrow night during the hours when I would normally be drooling on my pillow the logical thing is to stay up. Until the sun comes up. But because I am getting old and grumpy this is proving harder than I imagined. I started playing at about... 10pm?
0117 Update: So far I have managed to convince two random strangers and a friend (Verminkilla- he wanted a mention) not to go to bed and to stay up all night playing CoD with me. One has to be up in 3hrs. There has been a massive amount of swearing. Most of the things said do not actually make sense. I have no idea what is going on... My ratio has been in the positives pretty much all night. AKA I am awesome. I may be getting slightly sleeping but so far so good.
0203 Update: I am almost blind, I have a stage one pressure ulcer in my left ear and yet some how I am awesome. Verminkilla- has said at least 30 times that he is going to bed. He is obviously still playing. I AM INVINCIBLE. Lowest ratio of the last 5 games is 1.11.
0305 Update: We are all delirious. We lost one but Vermin and FairyGobMother are STILL playing. We are singing and probably dancing. We got kicked from the original lobby and now I am starting to go downhill. Also, Vermin was playing the Cantina song from Star Wars. I loved it.
0415 Update: Sweet Jesus. I think I am going to die. Vermins alarm to get up for work just went off. We convinced him to play another game but he won't stay home from work. I may have eaten one too many left over cupcakes and now my mouth feels like sand. I am resisting the urge to go to bed.
0436 Update: I am done. My eyes feel like I have run out of tears, my brain hurts and I feel a little disorientated... I said goodbye to my last friend on and now it is all turned off. What a huge fucking night. Oh dear god. What the hell is that noise??? Is it birds...
0454 Update: So now I have showered, I am brushing my teeth and going to bed. I am going to try and get to sleep before it gets too light and John gets up. GOOD EFFING NIGHT ^.^
