The only irony in this post is that by the time I finished it, the time was after 2:30am, we'll at least I'll get a solid 3 hour sleep. This would be a good time to point out that if you have any form of wickedness inside you then these techniques will not work, because as you've heard, there's no rest for the wicked ;)

Happy sleeping!
