Well, if you're going to eat them you're going to eat them.. However I would say you should probably read up a little bit on what you're going to be putting in your body. It helps a lot to be informed and knowledgable about what you're going to do.
I hope that you've got a good set and setting for the trip, because those two factors are crucial elements if you want to have an enjoyable experience.
But, if you insist on doing them, here's some answers for you..
The "best way" to eat them really depends on the person. A lot of people like to eat them on an empty stomach, because they supposedly have a more profound effect, and hit you faster. So if you're going to go that way I'd say just chomp them down. Just chew them up good and swallow, maybe wash out the taste with some water. You eat the entire mushroom. Anyone who tells you that the caps are more potent than stems (or vice versa) doesn't know what they're talking about. I've also heard of people putting them in between potatoe chips and eating them - that way it disguises the taste but doesn't fill up your stomach too much. Also, others put them on peanut butter sandwiches - although that will fill up your stomach more. Basically just chew them well and swallow, however/if you want to disguise the taste, that's up to you.
As for when to do them.. its really your call. Don't do them if you have any obligations to tend to later in the day. However, if you want to do them AFTER work or school or whatever, thats fine - as long as you are in the right mindset (as in not pissed off or stressed out). You could be fine taking them at 4 in the morning (that's when you said you get off work right?), but only if you won't be tired. You should plan on being awake for atleast 4-6 hours, maybe more depending on how much you take. Its pretty much impossible to go to sleep while tripping on mushrooms, so if you can (comfortably) stay awake from 4 - 10 am then you should be fine.
Other than that man, I can't stress enough set and setting. They are very very very important in terms of having a good time. You should browse this site and do some reading before you eat them.
Good luck
Ryan
