(Haven't the GOP circus clowns already done that already though! Waiting is the hardest part I think.) When I have persistent insomnia, I sometimes resort to Tylenol PM or an antihistamine. Fortunately I don't have to do it often.Alicehttp://wintersong.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20703123.post-61229210238571318482012-03-23T13:45:28.524-04:002012-03-23T13:45:28.524-04:00Sharp eye doctors (what pun?) can really be helpfu...Sharp eye doctors (what pun?) can really be helpful by alerting us to problems that they can detect through looking into our eyes.

Well, in my case it would be the ""Oh my God, they are either going to kill me or turn me into the Kansas state vegetable!," pre-surgery worries but that is only because I live in Kansas.
