Something I was thinking about since it's almost time for me to hit the hay. I recently fell into the habit of washing my face, which is rather a refreshing practice right before going to sleep. I'll usually wash my face, get a glass of water and lie in bed watching a television show until I fall asleep. Other nights are a little more hectic making everything a little tedious - those nights where all you want to do is dive under your covers, get all warm and cozy and drift away to dreamland. What are your nightly rituals? Is it a big deal if you forget them, or are unable to them? Which do you think might be a good idea to put into practice, and/or which might be good to get rid of? Do you have any unusual rituals that you think only you do? |

I typically just go online until my eyes hurt from staring at the screen. Nothing special, but it's kind of relaxing in a way. If there is no computer, I'll just stare at the ceiling until morning breaks. Insomnia!

I usually go on the computer until the late night hours (1 - 2 AM) and then turn off all the lights and go to bed. If I can't sleep I play on my guitar (sans amp, of course) or listen to music on my Zune. |

Lately my nightly ritual tends to involve watching TV until I start to dose off, then I go upstairs, brush my teeth and then go to my room and come online or read for a while until I get bored and go to sleep.

I'm neurotic I think. I take a shower, grab a cup of tea and watch a movie or TV show via my computer before getting to bed.

I either read until I am too tired to keep my eyes open, or I play on my iTouch games until I can't keep my eyes open. |

Leave my laptop, go downstairs for a cup of tea and a cigarette, brush my teeth and go to bed. |

I usually brush my teeth and wash my face. Then I get into bed with my laptop and mp3 player, occasionally my DS Lite or a book instead. |

I drag myself upstairs just before passing out from exhaustion. I've gotten the timing down to a science.

At school, I try to find something to wind down my brain even if it is late by the time I'm done with my work. That is usually a book or watching something for a few minutes on TV. At home I rarely keep any sort of routine, so nightly rituals are nonexistent. |

I have a really hard time falling asleep, so I usually just go to bed within a reasonable time and stick with it for the week so say 11 PM, but it can take me up to 3 hours to fall asleep or not sleep even, and all I try to do is just sleep (if I can.) Other then the hell of trying to get to sleeping, nothing much. |
