i work some pretty weird hours myself and always set both my cell phone and the regular alarm clock. i don't know why, but this gives me the ability to fall asleep pretty easily without having to worry about not waking up(it helps to put one of the clocks far enough away from your bed so you have to actually get up to turn it off). kac, i've got your cell # via the pm you sent yesterday - what time do you want me to call you in the morning? i'll be washing my car anyways getting ready for the trip to dayton!

that doesn't help you sleep. You'll crash if you're drunk enough, but then you wake up feeling all weird. I DNK, I don't recommend it. Plus the next day you feel like sh...t, not recommended if you're gonna drive anywhere.

Chocolate has caffeine so avoid that. Carbs (potatoes, bread) will work. They have that effect. Maybe you ought to eat a turkey sandwich or something.

What works best for me is to watch TV. I DNK why but it puts me to sleep when I watch TV from bed, within 15 minutes or so, even better than reading but reading works, too (takes longer for some reason).

makes sense!

I should have said when I watch TV late at night to go to sleep it's usually something silly, just to relax, not a great debate about the economic crisis or something like that.
