    I agree with the hot feet. Even in the middle of Summer I will still have my feet covered by the sheet. I'm one of those lucky people who usually hits the bed and don't know a thing until a few hours later when I wake up.

    From the page: "1. ... wear a pair of ski socks to bed. The science is a little complicated, but warm feet help your body's internal temperature get to the optimal level for sleep. 2. Figure out your body cycle. Ever find that you get really sleepy at 10 p.m., that the sleepiness passes, and that by the time the late news comes on, you're wide-awake? Some experts believe sleepiness comes in cycles. When sleepiness comes, get to bed. " Ok - two things about this: 1. What if you can't stand to wear socks to bed. I actually cringe at the thought. But I get the point. I can't go to sleep with cold feet! 2. According to this I should go to sleep when sleepiness hits in order to ensure proper sleep. Would this research/article be enough for my boss to let me dodge out for a nap at 2 pm when i start to crash? hmmmm.
