Insomnia really sucks. I didn't deal with this in the past when I led a lifestyle that involved a lot of exercise, but now I'm in suckville. Perhaps it's time to reconsider lifestyles.
On another note, I've been debating probability again tonight. (Yeah, I know, I should go to bed.) Probability is so weird. Like this: say I flip a fair coin ten times, and it comes up HTHHTTHHTT. What are the odds of that sequence? Exactly the same as getting heads ten times in a row. About one out of 1024, to be exact.
Am I branded with the mark of the geek that I know all the powers of 2 up to 16? And does that age me?
Two, four, eight, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096, ....
My research advisor of old would be proud to see that I wrote all the numbers under "10" in english, I'm sure. She sure docked me on that point a lot, back in the day. But bless her for her it. To this day I still get compliments on my proposal documents for clarity and style, thanks to her. Although I'm not certain that it works in this context.
Sigh.

I do yoga every night before bed. I sleep really well - even on these *&^^% camp mats.
