18. Eating a basket of chicken wings at 3 a.m. would severely upset, rather than settle, your stomach.


All of my favourite things still happen early in the morning. Despite having to rise at 5:30 or 6:00 to get ready for work, you will still find me awake at 3:00 sometimes. Staying up this late on weekends is especially common. Next time I find myself up at 3:00, I'm going someplace for chicken wings.

(Okay, I'm grown up. Mostly what I like to do at 3:00 a.m. is to go grocery shopping. I love my 24-hour grocery store.)
