*sigh*

My sleep schedule is messed up. I'm almost nocturnal. I sleep most of the day and I'm up all night. I've explained to my parents why my computer is not what's keeping me up at night, but, being parents, they completly ignore fact and tell me to go to bed anyway. And yes, I know, every kid hates going to bed. Just, normally they don't have a valid reason, and if they continue to stay up all night, it'll interfere with school, and one day work. I do homeschool, so I get to set the schedule, and the kind of job I'm going to have whenever I get one is preferably going to be during night anyway.

Regardless of what I say, I'm not allowed to do something productive. Instead, I just lay in bed for hours, not able to sleep because I'm not tired. There's a lot of stuff that needs to be done. Our fileserver box needs to have an operating system installed on it, I can do that. People need help on the Computing.net forums, I can help them. But instead I get sent to bed. So here I am, posting a completely useless message at 4 AM that'll probably get deleted.

Oh, by the way, my dad bought a Linksys router. Why? Because he didn't know how to use the Linux box. There was nothing wrong with the Linux box, only that my brother was the only person who could use it. So my dad decided to make it into a fileserver - and blasted the partition containing the OS, which my brother spent a long time setting up and getting just perfect so we had security but could still use the net.

Anyway, now he knows everywhere I go, which is not good, since I post on alt.fan.dragons, which I'd prefer he NOT go look at. Yeah, yeah, the one thing I need at my age is my parents throwing me out of the house or dragging me to a psychiatrist because they think I think I'm a dragon. It happens.
