Sleep

Okay wow, what a change a block makes. That stuff about soooo much free time? Yeah, totally a lie. Don't know what I was smoking, but clearly nothing good.

I've been having a lot of trouble sleeping lately. I take a long time to fall asleep, and I can't stay asleep. Last night I had this ridiculously frightful dream about my upcoming neuroanatomy test (it's tomorrow morning at 8am) that seemed too real for comfort.

I've been listening to this podcast from some Dr. Henshaw called, "Relaxation Music for Sleep, Stress, and Anxiety Relief from Enhanced Healing." Not sure if this a PhD doc or an MD doc, but it used to be quite good. "Used to be," because I think I've grown immune to it.

I think one problem is that when I'm starting to drift off at around 11:30 or something like that, my (upstairs?) neighbors start having sex. It's not that they're really loud, but I can still hear them. I can hear their friggin' orgasms (was that TMI?). And it's really annoying because it's like I'm SO CLOSE to falling asleep but then I get pulled back to reality. So sometimes I sleep with headphones in. And then I wake up all tangled in my headphones and it's just awkward. I wonder if they would stop having sex above my bedroom if I told them I could hear them...
