Finding a place to sleep

I'm looking for a place to sleep tonight.

If I sleep in my room, I have to deal with my roommate.
  If I go to sleep first, his going to sleep will disturb me.
  If I go to sleep second, I have to be careful not to disturb him.
  If we go to sleep at the same time --- well, fat chance of that.
Besides, the room is messy and I have to climb over Xerox paper boxes
to get to my bed and....

If I sleep in the lounge, I have to deal with everyone on the floor.
  They'd hack me.  I woke up there and they were discussing taking apart
  my glasses and reassembling them with different lenses.  Real funny.
  And they're babbling something about how quickly the ice is forming on
  the outside of their daiquaris. (sp?)

Where else is there to sleep?  I think I'm going to pull an all-nighter
on Athena just to avoid the issue.

Of all the stupid reasons to pull an all-nighter...
