I could suggest you try something I do, when I can't quite sleep. It can be done alone, but is preferable with a partner.

I know the feeling...after a certain point, you get the zombie-stare going, & once that highway hypnosis sets in, if you can shut your eyes at all, you still see the road ahead. Especially if you've done an energy shot (or popped an LA Turnaround).
