Pulling an all nighter - no booze

Title pretty much says it all, I have to work, all night, and I am doing it sober. I work on a computer and there's a big deadline and I just gotta get it done, usually, I would do so with a case of beer and a packet of cigs. However, tonight, no booze, no smoking, hour by hour I will make it through. Feeling pretty positive still but it's going to be a tough .. 10 ish hours for sure.

Let's go!

I do have time off after this so there's light at the end of the tunnel.

I don't know about anyone else, but I always get a feeling of satisfaction when I finish a project or task. Cross one more thing off my 'to do' list.

Being sober all night means you won't feel like crap in the morning.
