Too bad.
Even when I lived in Japan I was in a town of over a million people and me and my wife went out 3 a.m. to buy ice cream or stuff several times. (It was too hot to sleep...)
God bless America. ;)

Doc

Lol, you're lucky! There's never anything open at 3 A.M. here...

manuel

I was lucky. This was when I lived in Japan.
Back home where I'm now, all stores close at 8 p.m. or sooner. And are not open on Sundays. :-\

That sucks dude.  I have a 24/7 gas station open a few blocks from my house, and a bit further is a 24/7 Wal-Greens.  I'm pretty sure the Super Wal-Mart is 24/7 too. 

lol, I'm not worried about getting mugged.  More worried about the police catching me and arresting me for nothing.  They pulled me twice already on the side walk in the middle of broad daylight because I looked suspicious.  At night I can imagine worse, lol.  >.<;

As for falling asleep...  Watch an incredibly boring movie or show...  I learned my lesson from watching Monster Ranchers...  My neck ached the following day from the weird position in my chair I fell asleep in.  You could also listen to music you find that puts you asleep.  Sometimes OSTs do that to me, or classical music.  If watching or listening doesn't help you go to sleep, find a way to cool you down.  Like a fan or something.  My friends used to fall asleep in class when the temperature was cold.

Or -- crossing threads -- read a book. Always works for me -- not kidding.

manuel

Yes, reading can make you tired. It doesn't even have to be a boring book.

Go running... at night. :P

manuel

Bad idea. He'll get mugged. ... for further info see page 1.  ;)

On the other hand... you'd just have to run faster than the others. :D

Jedi Master Baiter

Carry a gun. :P

Gun + Running = Suspicion (+ Not Safe)
