Guess who barely slept last night?

I think I really need to start stopping work an hour before I go to sleep so that I can get it out of my head, especially when i have so much to do. I don't feel *sleepy* but I don't feel rested. I know it was close to three before I finally drifted off, or possibly later. At 2:30 I was considering just getting up and doing "something productive" but decided that would be a bad idea.

Also - I have this thing with ringing in my ears. I tried working with the computer off last night for a bit while I was reading, to see if I could concentrate better, but it was distracting. The white noise of the computer overs it, I guess. I don't know though - part of me wonders if it is a chicken and the egg sort of deal... but I get it (or notice it) a lot when I am trying to fall asleep, and some nights it can be distracting enough to keep me up. It certainly didn't help last night! I don't know if it is related to stress, to how much I am used to having electronics around and on, or something else. however I will also note that I hear really high pitched white noise when I'm passing through the library gate thingies (security gate?) ans that it intensifies a lot if I'm wearing my headphones, to the point of tolerably painful. maybe I should get my ears checked? I dunno how much of it is normal and how much would even be the sort of thing they can do anything about :p
