Default Not wanting to go to sleep

Alright, a couple of things first...

1) I love sleeping. When I can sleep in, I love sleeping a long time. I love naps. Generally, I think sleeping rules.

2) I have no trouble falling asleep. I fall asleep great at night. I get on a plane, I can fall right asleep. I actually have trouble falling asleep when in bed w/ someone new, but that's a whole different topic.

So, on to the main topic.

It is often SUPER HARD for me to make myself go to sleep. Like, to actually get in bed. Now, once I do, no problems going to sleep. I usually read for half an hour, then quickly fall asleep. And I love it.

But up until that point, I will do just about anything to keep from going to sleep. Surf the web. Watch crappy whatever on TV. Play Flash games. Chat w/ random people. Go through email. Read some blogs. Sometimes I will do this even when insanely tired. During the weekdays it's not that big a deal because I always have something in the morning and I can make myself go to sleep by a certain cutoff based on when I know I need to get up. But when I don't need to get up the next day, I will often waste a number of hours doing ridiculous crap at the tail end of my day that would be SO SO SO much better spent either sleeping or doing stuff earlier the next day.

How many of you have this same problem?

Wow, not only do I have this same exact problem but I was considering making a post about it. I think I do it mainly for the same reasons - if I know I have a lot of stuff to do the next day I just stay awake the night before to put it off. It sucks because I end up not getting enough sleep and being a zombie the next day. Basically we probably just need to stop being so lazy I think.

I eventually stopped considering this a problem and just accepted it.

For example:

I played a 3r satellite to the 215 a few years ago that started at 12am. Just because I didn't feel like going to sleep and it was the only donkament about to start.

I stayed up until 5am playing that [censored].

I had to wake up to take the SATs at 7:30 that morning.

But of course I knew that and had registered for the donkament anyway.
