Here I am at work again as usual, only this time I am without sleep.
You see, I work throughout the night, and sometimes my daytime schedule will interfere with any sleep I may get. So my question is, When you must stay awake after many hours of already being up, what do you do to help you stay awake?
This is part of what I do, place messages online, while drinking Mountain dew and splashing cold water on the face.

Imagine yourself falling asleep with Roseann Barr. ;-)

Actually, studies have shown that slowly sipping coffee, instead of gulping it, is better for keeping you awake. Well, at least one study that I heard about.
Ephedrine. 3 pills and you won't sleep for hours. Also good if you only got 1 or 2 hours to sleep, take before you go to bed. Alarm goes off your practically jumping outta bed. Warning tho, go to sleep soon after you take em or you can forget it.
They really aren't good for you, makes your heart race like hell, but so does waking up doing 80 MPH on the interstate at 2 in the morning.
