+1. Anything remotely math-related is great half-asleep. I chalk it up to being so close to the wake/sleep boundary that you start to go into dreamland a bit and your creativity spikes. Works for me anyhow.

Also the answer to the OP is man up, get coffee, and stop reading SF.

Fear. If you really need to get done whatever is motivating you to stay up its all you need.

Agreed. I've only pulled them when I've absolutely needed to finish a paper, because I don't need my energy/acuity for it when I'm done. But one of my roommates routinely pulls all-nighters studying for exams which I think is completely retarded.

For some reason, I never had the need to pull all-nighters in school. They only began when I started to work.

You're obviously lazy, retarded (sic) and don't know how to organize yourself properly. Congratulations.

Thanks for the tips. I got through the work faster than I thought it'd take and got to bed just a bit later than usual.

Shouldn't have put it off as I did! My procrastination problem will end up killing me one day.

Shaving in the morning is a good way to wake yourself up.
