I do not think you read the original post. There is nothing in it about partying all night....
Perhaps a bit of explanation of the term "party". Anyone in the military, especially in the Army would have understood the intent of this term "party" and probably caught it's meaning immediately. But, even after 30 years since military service, some terms are still a part of my life.
Anyone in the Army is first introduced to this word, usually the first or second day after their initial induction. We're introduced to a "G.I. Party".... which sounded pretty cool when the drill sergeant used the term, only to mean we had to clean up the barracks. That was the first introduction to the term.
"Party" was the term used whenever a task had to be performed, and it mean .... "do it with all your might!" "Party Hardy!" Whether that was cleaning the barracks, or getting ready for a road convoy, or qualifying at the riffle range, or going to the DMZ in Korea! Whatever you do, do it with all you might!
So, just to clarify the language .... If the OP wants to drive at night and sleep all day, there's nothing wrong with that! Go for it man! Do it and live the "gusto"! Do it with all your might! (Party Hardy!)
The rest of us old folks will just lay around at night and remember those former days when "rock-and-roll" meant .... grab your riffle, grab the ammunition, load it, and let's go, fire away! The mind wants to "go", but the danged old body just won't let us! I'll stay in bed at night! I'm to danged old for the drinking group "party" these days!
