Overactive Brain

It's annoying to get hit with cool code/project ideas just when trying to go to sleep. I went to bed quite late last night (after reading about 80% of Kurt Vonnegut's The Sirens of Titan — reading until I couldn't keep my eyes open). As I laid down on my bed, my brain went into overdrive with ideas for a new project that I'm working on.

I was forced to get up and get back to work - there was no resisting the ideas in my head. An hour later, I had finally purged the ideas (and the numerous others that followed after I got to my computer) into project documentation, and went to sleep.

I wish my brain had a configurable flow control so I could turn it down when I need to sleep.
