Hurry up and Invent a way to not Need Sleep

     It's almost 3 AM right now and I'm staring blankly at this computer screen. It's that weird moment where you're too tired to do anything, but not tired enough to actually go to sleep. There's a lot that I want to do before my night (err day, I dunno how to refer to it) is over like call some friends, put up some stuff online for sell, work on music, and I'm sure there's other stuff that I just can't think of. So there's all this important stuff to do, but I can't do it because I'm afraid that I'm going pass out and like have a stroke or something. I'm just stuck in this terrible limbo of "Don't wanna sleep" and "I'm tired as fuck".

     I can't help it but I feel like I shouldn't have to do this. Sleeping seems so... almost outdated to me. To me, the need to sleep is something that we should have conquered years ago before pretty much anything in the 20th century except for maybe like pizza rolls or something. Like some sort of super coffee or energy drink. Maybe some kind of surgery. Like "sleep implants" that change the sleep you require from 8 hours a day to like 3.5. I'm just saying that in a world where we have like 30 different flavors of poptarts, we should be able to make our bodies last days without sleep with no repercussions.

     I'm not quite sure what I'd do with the extra time, but I at least I wouldn't be like how I am now. Where it takes me 20 seconds to write pretty much any sentence. I keep hitting the wrong keys and the screen keeps becoming really visible and then I can't see anything. As much as I wish I could tell you that the extra time would be spent on studying, working another job, learning a language, working out, or anything else productive; I know in reality I would just spend all night playing Pokemon, taking pictures of myself, and making awful blog posts like this.
