armed to the teeth

So its about 3:45am and I'm about halfway through an all-nighter that I booked here at work. I'm upgrading the support packs on one of our SAP installations and this can't be done during normal business hours (it hoses things up). So we bring the system down in the wee hours of the morning and do the implementation. I'm absolutely armed to the teeth with things to do while the support packs install and I attempt to stave off sleep. I've got two complete seasons of Spongebob Squarepants on DVD here with me (seasons 3 and 4) as well as the first Spongebob movie. I've already knocked out season 4, so to try and break the monotony I'm listening to some sweet music. I'll tackle the Spongebob movie next.

My lack of sleep is quite apparent. My eyes are red and really burning and I'm droning on about nothing in particular. In fact, I had to delete a whole paragraph where I pitted Modest Mouse against Franz Ferdinand. I definitely miss my bed. With any luck I'll get outa here by 7:00 and be in bed by 8:00.
