Late Nighter's.

[The Might]

Well, vacation starts next week, so I might stay up later then usually, given that there are things to do here.
I'm pretty sad that the Quiz Forum isn't so active anymore...

Thanks to my being in my father's place I'm a late nighter - it's 3am here. This is very stupid, since I don't have anything to do in here (or in livejournal) but I still don't go to sleep, even though that would be sensible considering the time and the fact that I have to go to school early the day after tomorrow. But I'm not tired at all!

[Precioussss]

Tonight is a late night for me, which I don't usually have. I can't sleep, so this probably won't be the last post I make around here this night. Gives me time to re-read old posts, which is what I do a lot of the time here anyway.

Ah, Might returns. Bring on the holidays! And I can understand how you feel Lommy, myself most of the time signing in but not actually doing anything because I am busy elsewhere even in the early hours. Which leads me onto my next point. Why don't we actually do something constructive.

We spend all this time on here, like Precioussss reading posts til late we should have a sound grasp of what there is to offer, and which threads draw our attention. Perhaps we should have a "Late Nighter's Review". So what are the best threads to visit of a late-evening-early-morning?

Whenever you find yourself stuck for posting elsewhere or you are simply up late posting, post a review of the thread that has caught your attention and why, particularly if its the thread that's causing your late night!

[The Might]

Ah, yes...the holidays.
They're gone meanwhile, back to school.
But it's a weekend and I'll be returning late home tonight, so I might consider staying up a while and posting some more here.
On the other hand, all this learning makes me more and more tired.

It is 1:30 AM i dont feel like posting so ill just lurk round in the shadows

The coincidence is almost spooky, but I must admit that it is 1:30AM here now as well, exactly, on the button. I loaded this thread more than half an hour ago but only at this very moment have I come to it through the many threads and websites I have tabbed in my Firefox window. I too am a night-person; I find I think better at this time of night, I certainly am more creative after the clock strikes the twelve count and resets itself. I have so many memories of late-night perusal of Tolkien forums at hours that one might argue were better spent in bed, knowing nothing. Ah, that I could argue fiercely were it put to me. There is something about Tolkien, about forums, about talking with your friends online long after everyone else has gone to bed...nothing else is quite like it. A fresh breeze through the window on a warm summer's night... ahhh, the memories. I am too nostalgic a person by half, but it has its high points. There have been three major Tolkien forums that have shaped my life. One is dead, sadly dead and gone. One I now own myself; happily it is alive and well. But the Barrow-downs... Ahh, the Barrow-downs started it all. The major events of my life now can all be traced back to the Barrow-Downs. It was the year of 2001 that I met my best online friends here, and one of them created Rohan, where I have been ever since, and from where I met my first love, who inspired me to visit England, my first and only major trip. And...many other things in my life have started here at this fine former ezboard, but I am droning on, off-topic and lost in my own thoughts. See what the night can do? The night has a power such as the day cannot imagine, for the night is a dream we may all share, with waking eyes, under crescent moon...
