Sleep doesn't always come easy for me. The peace and quiet can actually be a distraction - with no external stimulus, my brain fills in the gaps with (gasp) thoughts. I don't NEED thoughts at 12:30 AM. I've been thinking about seeing a doctor to get some kind of sleep aid. Anything's got to be better than what I do now (allergy medication and tequila).
There have been many after-school specials about the dangers of sleeping pills, including a Punky Brewster episode I remember vividly, for some reason. She kept using the word "hooked" like the audience would never be able to understand anything else.
My biggest problem night is Sunday. It's hard because my wife works second shift, so on days we both work, I don't get to see her until 11:30. I need to get up at 7:30, so I should be in bed right about then. On Sunday night it's even worse, 'cause I've been staying up even later to spend more time with her.
My glass is almost empty now. Let's try another "good night." Good night.
