I think that I’ve discovered the source of my insomnia. When I was little my mother used to sing me to sleep. This is an excellent strategy except that she sang a lullaby founded on reverse psychology. It clearly had the opposite effect. Here’s how the song went:
Stay awake. Don’t go to bed.
Stay awake. Don’t nod your head.
Though the moon is on the rise…
Stay awake. Don’t close your eyes.
