Wilson,

You either get up very early or go to bed very late.

Your post makes me think there must be a million slang terms for male
masturbation...prob'ly been discussed here in the past.  I haven't learned
to competently search the archives.

Exx.
Flogging his log
Spanking his monkey
Choking his duck
Stangling his parrot
 and many more
