Not sure if you're being sarcastic or not.

If I said "the servers are down for maintenance at 2am tomorrow" when would you think they will be unavailable?

I wasn't being sarcastic at all.

If you said "2am tomorrow" I would assume two hours after next midnight. Perhaps this is a result of my usually late schedule because I normally go to bed around 2am, so everything up to then and including midnight is "tonight".

If I said "talk to me about it tomorrow" and later we're chatting at 1am, are you going to think I meant now?
