Holidays are here...

I've been having trouble sleeping lately and consequently have had trouble waking up in the morning.  I truly miss the days when I could fall asleep within 5 minutes of lying down. Last night when I laid down my head went crazy thinking about random things!
It started like this: I'm glad Abby's home > Abby needs a real job > Maybe Caspian will hire her if I beg > Oh crap I forgot to send off the schedule for tomorrow > Do I have time to go to the gym tomorrow? > Good thing my crossfit teacher is hot since my muscles ache > I forgot to research home remedies for sore muscles > I also forgot to pay for the race and buy a season pass to six flags > Maybe I can go Saturday to six flags? > Then I'll have an excuse to miss the Saturday Crossfit class > Maybe next week > Wait, when is Thanksgiving > Holy crap it's almost here!

When my brain starts jumping from thought to though as I'm trying to fall asleep I generally try to force myself into a day dream or night dream if you will.  I start by creating a scenario in my head of something and then start working myself through out I see it playing out. I generally fall asleep before the plot gets anywhere because I'm incredibly poor at forced day/night dreams.  

There's my at home remedy for sleep deprivation. 
Also I enjoy this song.
