Lighting and thunder storm.

Lighting woke me up, thunder keeps me from falling asleep.

Was it electric arc lighting?

Isn't that what lightning is?

Sometimes I dream I'm making out with a girl, then I feel a moustache. Is my dog kissing my mouth while I'm sleeping?
Reminds me of when that actually happened. The dog realised it had been a BAD DOG!

Kissing aint so bad, it's what a friend's dog wanted to do to my ear that I objected to! I can still hear her hysterical laughter.

The flings of the past, the opportunities of the now, wrapped up snugly in a blanket of lonliness.

Been spending my sleepless nights sewing and watching Steve Shives' "An Atheist Reads" series on YouTube.  Very much enjoying it -- it's not as good as sleep, but it's an entertaining replacement.

Listening to podcasts or especially audiobooks spoken in a monotonous voice can work wonders when you're going through a sleepless spell.

I have to get up in about 6 hours but I just seem to fall sleep easily. Thinking about life, the future, prospects... ::)

I've started listening to ambient sounds in hopes that it'll help me sleep. Anyone else do this?

I've tried a few white noise generators. None of them seem to be any better than the common box fan but you don't wake up nearly so chilly on cold winter nights.

Funny you should mention that, it's precisely because I'm not turning on the fan anymore that I can't sleep well. It's like I need some sort of constant background noise to fall into a deep sleep.

Something like this:

I have a huge playlist of themed background noise. I have everything from ocean waves to neo typing on a keyboard.

What is "neo typing"?
