…don’t count sheep.

I had been lacking sleep for the past several days (old news) and really wanted to get a good night’s sleep last night -but to no avail. I tried counting sheep before I stopped at the 6th sheep. Why? Well, for one, I have a bad imagination. I doubt those were sheep jumping over the fence. And I doubt it was a fence in the first place. Moreover, I was getting more awake by the sheep.

In the end, what I did was allow my mind to painfully wander to the #1 (in my opinion) sleep-inducing subject of all time: History. Then, snap! I was off to slumber land.

Who ever said History was of no use?

OK -me, that’s who.
