Hi Neil,

Night after night,week after week,month after month,year after year and still no relief in sight. I am a thirsty man in the desert, with no water in sight. It hasn't rained in 6 years. I'm beginning to see and hear things that are not there. I feel like i'm dying a slow death. I've been down to the whipping post. My eyes are drilled back into my face. My bones and muscles are aching.I'm always squinting and the sun hurts my eyes. Maybe this will be my lucky night. Maybe i will hit the sleep lottery and win 8 hours of sleep tonight! I've been to the edge too many times and peeked down into the abyss. It feels like i've walked a mile with Job. Am i going insane or is my insomnia talking to me?
