I don’t know whether to be relieved or sad that these days I’m sufficiently exhausted at bedtime that I can manage maybe three or four pages of what I’m currently reading before I have to put it aside.

I usually keep a very dull book at bedside, and hope it becomes excessively boring at the exact point when the Ambien and/or Flexeril kicks in.

I can’t get to sleep unless I read first and yeah I fall asleep with the light on a lot. Am I depressed? Maybe — but I have better reasons for that the light on all night.

I was gonna say, “Prevent me from reading before bed and I will become more depressed over time than light could ever cause,” but I see the original study is about forcing mice to be in light 24 hours a day. Yeah, that would depress me.
