Music Monday 48 :: Joyce's Sleepful Slumber

A former student, Joyce, loves music. She attends lots of concerts and has a good ear for good stuff. She recently posted this list of music on Facebook. It's her playlist for falling off to sleep. I like the list. Many of her friends like it. I'm guessing that you'll join the rest of us in liking the list as well ... and getting a good night's rest.

Oh, and after a great deal of discussion, me and some others convinced Joyce that she should start a blog. You'll find her on Posterous.

Incredibly Annoying Reasons Why I Can't Sleep!

The title says it all:

• elderly neighbors who can hear each other argue, but I can hear them CLEARLY! It may seem unreasonable, and uncaring but I've called the police on them more than once.
  
• upstairs neighbor who must put on her heels from the time she wakes in the morning @ 6 a.m.-ish and clip clops up and down the hall all morning until 8 a.m.-ish; am I the only one who takes off her shoes when entering the house and don't put them on until I leave the house?
• trains ... damn trains
• running water - I can actually hear the water running through the pipes in my building
• The refrigerator - love the food inside, but sometimes the drone keeps me from dreaming
  
• The sound of the heat coming and on and then turning off, coming on and then off ...
  
• The sound of the helicopter landing at the hospital across the street

This girl is mad and sleep deprived ... ask me when I'm moving? In a few weeks ... the countdown is on.
