Wake up early before work or school, load in the saved character appearance data, pick a server, start it, then just shut the game off. It'll skip the opening cutscene and you'll be able to start playing for real later.
It's even more easily remedied from SE's end.

After all, it is utterly ridiculous to have time-sensitive restrictions for character creation. I mean, does SE think that by allowing people to create a character at 3am, that same character won't log on during prime time? Warn people about congestion, lock the server completely if it is truly maxed out, and other than that, step back and let people fend for themselves. All that time-sensitive locking does is anger people for absolutely no good reason.
