How do you stay awake after work? D:

Do any of you have the problem where by the end of the working week you're just so tired all you want to do stay in bed, watch TV and play some video games?
Last time I went out clubbing on a Saturday I was yawning all evening and had to concede defeat at about midnight when I went home to get some much needed kip.
This weekend I was supposed to go round a friends house and had a date on Sun and I've blown it all off because I've been so tired hah. I mean in all honesty I don't feel guilty because I haven't had a 'me' weekend in the last 4 weeks! Always visiting people (nobody ever visits me >_>) and it's just worn me out.
I don't think I can actually keep up with the work-live lifestyle I have to work, and weekends are spent chilling and getting stuff in order for next week, I mean if there's a bank holiday or I take days off holiday I can really enjoy myself... do other people manage to do everything all the time?!

Saying that, I HATE clubbing and i love staying in and having 'me' time anyway, and the gigs/dj nights that i like to go to arent every week so when they are on i try and make the effort to go. Most of the time i dont feel like im missing out too much.
I know what you mean though i cant keep up either. Plus in my job, i work weekends so i dont fancy going out friday or saturday night when i have to be in work sometimes between 6.30 and 11 the next day.
The working week comes round all too quickly for me though. boooo. Saying that, I should get to bed.
I never make plans, but on the occasion that I do, I cross my fingers the other person backs out. Staying at home and sleeping or doing nothing is so nice.
I also believe in naps. Best thing in the world. Whether it be 30 minutes or another 8 hours. Naps rule. Nap every day after work.
I usually last a few weeks before it gets too much.
