sleep...

Recommended Posts

Two things work for me:
1. Read something you've read a thousand times before. Preferably something dull! (Tech manual, etc.)

2. If you got a TV in the room, put it on a monotonous channel, (CNN works pretty good for me) turni t down low so it becomes background noise. Don't watch it! I find I tend to drift off with it instead of those inner conversations that keep you awake!

Turn off your computer.:)
Drink milk, hot or cold it will not matter, works the same somehow and I have no clue why.

And most important do not count sheep, count canopies landing all in a row very softly and not one of them doing something stupid, just a nice long landing sequence. It works!

approach:
1.Inebriate-shot of vodka.
2. medicate- NYQUIL ( the sniffling sneezing How the hell did I end up on the kitchen floor medicine.)
3. Try your hardest to stay awake! you'll be out in no time!

Good luck! Blue skies, white sheep!

Yeah, that damned internal monologue... it keeps looping the same three tracks over and over and over...

I'd put CNN on but I don't have a TV in my little corner of the back room of the shop...

Lay in bed in the dark and contemplate the many ways you will sell helmets and protracks and camera mounts in the morning? (that is if power has been restored and all is right in the world...well, sebastian, at least)

I'm with Jib on the other suggestions....all good, by the way!

Or you could just take a little cold medicine with an antihistamine, engage in some risque IM action, and wait until the sleep steals you away from reality? Always a favorite of mine....(well, not being sick, but the rest is fun!) ;)

That's track 2 of the looping internal monologue.

Track 1 is "boohoo I don't get to go home for Xmas"

Track 3.... well, track 3 isn't much fun either.

Fukkit. I'm taking a Robaxin and not caring how I feel in the morning. At least it will make the "voices in my head" STFU for tonight. ;)

Hon, be glad you have a home to think about, even if you can't make it for X-mas. Some of us are totally alone.

Are you still awake? What about a book? Magazine? Parachutist? ... Deep breathing! Or...see attachment... :P
So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

Warm Bath...


Unfortunately I don't fit in the sink in the bathroom here. One of the tradeoffs for living in the back of the store (ie not paying rent B|).

I don't have anybody here to have wild sweaty monkey sex with. Don't want to sacrifice any more kittens tonight either.

Luckily the Robaxin seems to be doing the trick...
