Get a pad and pencil Pinks an WRITE IT DOWN. Write down what
you ask? ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING. Whatever you are thinking
about, even if it ends up looking like total gibberish.
Give up the caffeine. You think you're helping yourself, but you're
not, it's total sabotage.
Trust me.
Or I'll break your fingers.
:D

A day in the life with your hard of hearing, scatterbrain, grandmother.
Gran: 'ere our billy says, David Bowie lives with a man" ! "What's the world coming to"!!
Me: "No gran, he lives with, Iman"
Gran: "Thats what, Billy say's" ....."he lives with a man" ! ....."disgusting" !!
Me: "No Gran", "Iman is his wife" !
Gran: "He married a man"! ........ "is everyone in pop gay"?
Me: (exasperated, and changing the subject) "Hey I was talking to, Jane Pokes the other day, Gran"
Gran: "eh?... "eh??
Me: "Sid Pokes's daughter!"
Gran: "Sid Pokes's daughter" ! ......"that's disgusting"!
Me: "No! No! Gran" , ....."Harry Pokes's sister" !!
Gran: "The brother's at it as well" ? ...."disgusting"!
Me: "No, No, No, Gran" !!!....."my old mate !...... "Jimmy Pokes's sister" !!!
Gran: "The whole family's at it????? ......"disgusting" !
Me: (having gave up) "Fancy a cup of tea, Gran"?
Gran: "yeah, good boy, two sugar, no milk"....."there's chocolate biscuits in the fridge"

Try some exercise ............try some warm milk for the tryptophan.....or eat chicken or turkey...........try some TV or music at bedtime. Most of all try to get up 2 hours earlier in the AM.
When all else fails................go to the doc and get some adivan for a month.

Because you're an insomniac like the rest of us!
I've been through it all... I'm fortunate if I can get four hours of sleep a night... (which I'm fine with, really unless I'm training) and no, I don't always follow all the advice I've been given, either... :p but when it's been several days... I do everything I can to try to fall asleep.
I'll go back and read what you've done thus far and offer my advice once I've read everything you've already tried.

I would be too... *ahem* although, my excitement might appear a bit differently than it does with you...

Alright, let's see...
One of the first things that was recommended by my doctor was to rid my bedroom of unnecessary distractions, keep it dark and all that..., only use your bed for sleeping... (yeah, I always screw up with that one, too... :wah: )
