I need a reset button
Its 4 AM Monday Morning, I pretty much blew off the weekend, Slept all Sunday afternoon / Evening
Woke up @ 2AM. And I have been looking at the internet and drinking Jameson the past two hours.
If nothing is really wrong with work I will most likly blow it off by 10AM and go back to sleep.
Anyway not sure why I am typing this? but I am not doing it right. ON many levels.
What to do.

Get a hobby. Or a girlfriend. Something to kill the time?
I usually get into a similar cycle in the winter. I only go into the office 4 days a week, and come winter some weeks go by that I get next to nothing done. I just find myself looking forward to going skiing and spend all day on TGR, watching the weather, etc.

It's Low-T, man!
Just kidding, but maybe it is? The starting drinking at 2 AM thing is probably not a good long-term plan btw.

Since you're drinking at 2 am, you should take up gambling and strip clubs too

Eesh, I get like that a lot too, only I usually don't have the option to blow off work.
I'm naturally a night-owl, always have been even when I was a kid. My biorythms just naturally settle in at going to sleep around 2am and waking up around 10. During long periods of unemployment I end up falling into that routine. When employed, I tend to do that on the weekends which isn't good for the rest of the week. I was up 'til 1:30 last night but had to get up at 5:30 for work today, and I'll be pulling 12hr shifts all week. As long as I can get to sleep early tonight things will be okay, but since I won't even get home 'til 7 or 8 and need to get up at 5:30, it's not likely I'll be getting good sleep this week.
Good luck, and I think I'd skip the drinking early in the morning part......Some will fall in love with life and drink it from a fountain that is pouring like an avalanche coming down the mountain...

I've tried drinking whiskey in the morning only a couple times. Not many things will screw up your life more than hard liquor in the morning.

Are you prepared to run the other way? Are excellent at makeshift white flags?

Shit, we all go through that at some point. Except that my own examples have never involved starting to drink at 2 am on Monday. But I definitely slack off at work more than I should lately. I figure I've got two choices: (1) wait until being broke scares me into getting my shit together; (2) take a serious break and figure out if I want to keep doing what I do.

To be fair to Benny, the thousands of times he has bitched may have caused the two times he didnt to be overlooked.
To the OP, you should probably try pushing the pause button before you go straight to the self destruct one.In with the 9.
