The Ballerina Zebra Pun Mafia is the most dastardly of all the mafias.

Attempt to go to sleep early.

Look at the time, it's still midnight. Not too late, hopefully.

Get distracted by something.

Look at time again.

It's now eight and you have to go somewhere. Somehow you managed to avoid sleeping entirely. Now you're tired for the whole week.

right.

Had to read this twice until I got it, but yes. The Ballerina Zebra Pun mafia is not something to be underestimated. D:

...that cannot happen to me because I have to go to sleep by midnight. Can't physically stay up longer/ignore it for so long. Actually 8 hours of sleep is the minimal amount of sleep I need in order to actually function, otherwise I'm really silly... and un-clever. :/

right.

Yep.
