Kick off your shoes, and run up and down the halls, sliding on the tiles. Yell "WHEEEE" periodically.

COFFEE!!! AND LOTS OF IT!!
Also make sure you start getting 8 HOURS of sleep a night from now on! Did you know hours before midnight count as double? Also the best way to get to sleep is to think of some nice memories... times when you were really happy. Try and build a sort of catalogue in your mind of happy memories and mentally pull them out each night when you go to bed!
Before you go to bed, don't do any hard thinking! It gets your brain started up and makes it harder to get to sleep. And if you wake up in the middle of the night, DO NOT look at your clock! Just think that it is 1am. IT IS ALWAYS 1AM! You still have hours of sleep left!
There's this book called "Tired of Being Tired" by some doctor... it's really really excellent for getting a better night sleep.
So this seems to not answer your question, but really it does! If you get more sleep, you wont feel so tired when you are working late.

Ask someone to beat you on the back, all over your back somewhat hard. Then offer to do it back to them. Both will help wake you up. Put eye drops in your eyes.
Get a small bottle of peppermint essential oil to keep in your pocket for when this happens. Inhale deeply whenever you need a wake-up.

Get out of the chair and walk around for awhile.
Make sure you get plenty of coffee or soda for the caffeine.

I know it may at first sound gross.. but try to remember something involving a poot. Man that always makes me chuckle and wakes me right on up.

You need your rest. Stay where you are. I've just been admiring your car. I'm only going to take it for a little spin!
