To Sleep! Perchance to...Sleep!!

HA! I finally slept well last night! At last. And that without the sleeping aid!! I will only use that in really hard cases in which after 1 or 2 hours I am still awake. I think there are two things I need to do to sleep well...actually three...no wait, four, but the fourth one is not likely any time soon. First of all, take a hot shower before bed. Hot showers are nice anyway, so might as well make sure I take one every day. Second, wake up early and go to bed early, and as a result not sleep as much! Third, and this was actually the fourth that I thought of but I'm changing the order for effect, is to get a nice massage before sleeping...I need to resolve that issue some time, but for now I will have to live without it. Fourth, I need to read the Smurfs comic books. Nothing is quite as silly and amusing as the Smurfs, especially the ones that are just a collection of short stories, because then you don't feel like you have to read to the end of the book. Even the word Smurf, if you think about it long enough, will make you laugh...smurf smurf smuuuuurf. What an odd collection of letters.

Anyway, that is my Road Map to Sleep. I hope it works, and if not I can always take the drugs.

In other news, I just found out in the paper that the Big Three car manufacturers just went below the 50% market share in Canada. Where they lost was in the area of compact cars. From my vague understanding of it they didn't realize that this was where the car market was headed and didn't put any research in that area. Umm...can you say DUH!? Ok, maybe this is a somewhat simplifed view of it, but still, the only place where they still have most of the market share are big trucks and SUVs and light trucks, and even there sales are dropping. It boggles my mind that they couldn't predict this and prevent it...it is fairly obvious that people are GOING to start driving smaller cars, since fuel prices are probably only going to go up from now on, and not only that their efficiency and cleanliness is way better.

Overall, this doesn't really bother me too much. I ride my bike or take public transit as much as I can, and hopefully won't need to buy a car for a while still. When I do it will be small and efficient.

Well, I think that's enough writing for one day. I had no idea what to write about before I started, so I think that's not bad!

Ciaociao
