Been awake since yesterday at 6am, it's now 4:48a and I can't sleep. I layed down earlier and I think I may have fallen asleep for about 15min but then woke up wide awake.

Sleep recommendations?

go have a warm bath, or eat a big meal, or go read a book with some quiet music in the background.

Very nice ideas...

No bathtub.
Roommates have out of town guests sleeping in living room (next to kitchen, no big meal)
I suppose I could read, music is out of the question, my woman is asleep and has to be up in a few hours. Otherwise she could prolly help me sleep.

Eat some ice cream and watch infomercials. ;)

Forget that idea. I wouldn't be able to sleep with all that crowd either. Go rent a motel room.

Wake her up for some Moo Shoo ;)

I know it's harsh, but posting here is just making you more awake, you should turn the comp off and go splash some cold water on your face, then lay down and comtemplate something really difficult

If it makes you feel better, I am in kinda the same position. Finished work at 3 am and got to sleep at 4:30am. Really needed some sleep, but I couldn't, so after 5 1/2 hrs sleep, i'm here posting.

I slept for a few hours earlier, so I'm not tired at the moment... (which sucks because now I'm going to want to sleep all day..)

if you are of age, drink a beer or two, or do a shot. tylenol pm works, or if you have some prescription pain meds, take one of them (like vicodin, or tylenol 3)
