I've always been the type that needed something on to fall asleep to. As a kid, it was Howard Stern episodes back when the local affiliate played the morning's show at night. Once I had a tv it was usually sportscenter since they'd just repeat the same episode over and over all night. Discovering the chrontendo series was something of a revelation as the guy was presenting videogames in the driest, most boring fashion possible. Recently I stumbled upon twitch streams of Microsoft Flight Simulator X and jfc this poo poo is like ambien. The white noise from the engine and the lack of action beyond taking off or landing just makes this perfect. It-no joke-used to take up to 2 hours to fall asleep most nights but these days I've got it down to 20 mins tops usually.
I guess there's not much of a point to this thread other than sharing my discovery of flight sim streams, but what are your sleep routines? How long does it take you to fall asleep at night on average?

The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.
*tossing and turning*
And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood
*flips pillow over to cold side*
And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters
*covers feet with covers*
And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise.
*kicks covers off of feet*
When the fifth angel blew his trumpet, I saw a star that had fallen to earth from the sky. The star was given the key to the shaft of the bottomless pit.
*checks phone*
And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God, Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates. And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men.
*gets up to pee*
But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.
*just stares at the clock*

David Hume is my fave to get to sleep on. After the gardening thread I got out my collected poetry and prose of Stevens and that's real good too.

The bed is for sleeping. .. if you stopped doing other things in it you'd fall asleep easier.
A lot of time I have really crazy semi-concious dreams though, when I'm laying in the dark and think I'm not asleep but sort of am

Had a really terrible dream that I was in some sort of horror survival movie type thing the other night sucked p hard...
I remember one scene I was at like an aquarium and there was this one huge tank with a certain type of fish that is benign but they all activated to be killer fish, which is something their species does rarely on a cycle but no one knew, and also it was flooding out and they were killing everyone

Lifehack: fall asleep at takeoff and wake up on landing for fun and easy travel. This only works if you haven't destroyed your falling asleep routines with alcohol and sleep drugs.

What's the deal with sleep? We go, we lie down and then travel through time! Its crazy! And what's with dreams? One night I'm getting hot with a celebrity the next night I'm getting punched by a demon sofa! I mean, cmon! Don't you hate when youre about to fall asleep and accidentally think about your mortality?! Forget about it!

I just...get this...go to sleep...
If I need to get to bed early and don't feel tired enough to fall asleep quickly, I'll put on some soft(ish) music. Post Rock is good for this, sometimes I do Dark Side of the Moon even. It's a bit eventful but it has a lot of lovely, lulling parts and the volume is low anyway.

haha no thats even worse cause then i hear/sing along in my head and strain to hear it more. The catch is to keep my brain occupied with something banal enough that it wants to fall asleep. Familiar things that i like do the opposite.

I love coast to coast am! Lately George Noory is getting on my nerves though, he seems like he's a lot less interested in finding out the truth than he is in having entertaining wackos on. I miss Art Bell.
