127(-120) hours

I know its not going to help, me coming and complaining to you but its 4:44 5 am and I'm in a bit of a dilema.
I'm doing my work, and its all going well. Slowly but surely the practise test results are creeping up, 1/7, 2/7, 4/4, 5/7 ... but then disaster strikes!
I got stuck. Not in the working, but the how. Something is wrong, and I don't know what. I meddled around a bit, but time was passing, what was I supposed to do. I called in re-enforecements from the lovely people at yahoo answers, but they couldn't come. I checked out the social networks but its 4am. There's no one for miles. Then comes the other realisation. Its 4am. I'm going to feel this tomorrow. I've drunk the awake bringing coffee and I feel awake right now, but can I pull this off tomorrow? I don't think so. I like working at night, but I can only usually manage a proper late nighter once in a row and going on 5am is pushing it even for me.
This is the time when the beloved quiet and darkness of these hours can turn on you. You thought they were on your side, you forget that they are really completely neutral.
What do you do now? Do you stick with your max 71% (brain motors probably being less reliable because of the time) or do you twist? Twisting could give you the chance to ask around for help, but at the cost of potentially losing your awakeness and your 'roll' of maths thoughts.
Tis a dilema indeed my friends. What path should our vallient warrior take?
