Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
but I hate noise - the downstairs neighbor's tv can drive me batty, but I have earplugs.
Me too. Any music, tv or conversation and I can't sleep. A regular noise (clock ticking, fan, etc.) is fine.
My new upstairs neighbor is in the habit of turning the tv on rather loud at, say, 3:30 AM. Once or twice I've been woken up from a deep sleep by that.
If I had a place in the giant drill bit I wouldn't want to be all the way at the top -- I like the ones that see more city.
And it looks like you would only have to leave for work - and serious shopping.
Darker is better for sleep -- and all kinds of noise can wake me up. When DH was on call a lot - I had a fan in the bedroom to turn on so I could sleep while he was on the phone

Currently I don't have any earplugs. (Or maybe I have half a pair.) A fan makes a nice white-noise generator.
I was trying to get mac to go to sleep without the light, but have stopped trying for the moment.
I don't think I slept without having the hall light on and my door open until I was in my teens. And then I started it again when I moved into my first apartment w/out roommates in grad school. And didn't stop until 2000 when I moved into the house I own. Now I like it very dark indeed.
yeah, I realize I was being crazy with trying to get him to sleep with so little light since he has never had his own room or bed. Right now a light is dimmed outside his room and his overhead light is dimmed also.
I'd like to get blackout curtains - the ambient light from my street is pretty high. I have a white noise machine and use earplugs to sleep - hotel rooms are odd for me because of the lack of white noise.
I recently found out that IKEA has blackout shades in a wide variety of unusual sizes, which is wonderful because currently we are using tinfoil on the windows in D's room to get him to nap during the day.
I don't know what to think, but stuff goes missing all the time. Weird stuff to go missing.

am going brain dead - entering contracts into a database. need distractions.
