Frustrations of a Night Owl

You know, I actually have a surprising capacity to be productive (tangibly as well as mentally) at 1:30 a.m. The problem is, I live in a culture where I'm more or less expected to (once in possession of a career, anyway) start being productive at around 9 a.m. (pre-afternoon, my productiveness capacity is at maybe 8%, possibly as high as 30% if augmented by Extremely Imminent Deadlines), and being tangibly productive in the middle of the night would be labeled workaholism. (My current status as a college student, I am sure, exempts me from that latter point for the interim.) This is land of the coffee gods and the home of the morning people. (See, the reasons I should move to Europe someday just keep compounding.)
