Yes, you read that right…I am actually exhausted.  It’s 5:20am and I am just heading to bed.  I would’ve actually liked to have been able to go to bed about an hour ago but I’ve been working on some projects I needed to get done before tomorrow.

When I say that I’m “going to bed”, that doesn’t necessarily mean that I’m “going to sleep”.  Going to bed represents lying in bed and trying to sleep.  They say it’s not good to be in bed when you can’t sleep.  You need to train your body so that your brain believes that your bed is only for sleeping (well and maybe a couple of other things :-P).  So, they say that if you don’t fall asleep within about 25 minutes, that you’re supposed to get back up from bed and go do some other things…then try again in 45 minutes to an hour.  This idea doesn’t work for me, as then I’d never fall asleep but it might work for some other people, so who knows.
