The sacred trinity of bedtime companions! Normal folks cuddle with pets, couples snuggle with partners, but CS engineers? We form a polyamorous relationship with our laptop, phone, and crushing deadline anxiety. That moment when your IDE is the last thing you see before sleep and the first thing you check after waking up. "Just one more commit before bed" turns into debugging until 3AM while your posture gradually transforms into the infamous programmer's pretzel. The true mark of a CS engineer: your devices have more consistent uptime than your sleep schedule.

Your brain at 3 AM is the ULTIMATE BETRAYER! There you are, desperately trying to catch some Z's before another day of debugging hell, when your traitorous brain decides it's the PERFECT moment to contemplate the Stack Overflow homepage layout! NOT the solution to world hunger, NOT your crush's phone number, but the EXACT SHADE OF ORANGE on those upvote buttons! And suddenly you're WIDE AWAKE wondering if the navbar has changed since yesterday. Sleep? Who needs it when you can mentally reconstruct a website you've visited 47 times today already?!

The eternal developer paradox in its natural habitat! You start with noble intentions to finish that side project you've been working on for 6 months (or let's be real, 2 years). But then your brain spots a slightly misaligned variable name or a function that could be 2 lines shorter, and suddenly you're knee-deep in a full codebase refactoring session at 3 AM. That "ugly" class becomes a personal vendetta, and before you know it, your simple weather app has become a three-week architecture overhaul while the actual features remain untouched. The dopamine hit from making that code "beautiful" is just too powerful to resist—who needs project completion when you can have perfectly aligned brackets?
