Can't sleep. Nerves, worry, upset tum, insomnia all rolled into one fun evening. I've found sleepless nights seem to egg on more sleepless nights rather than making the next easier. Melatonin failed so I took the only other option, Nyquil. We'll see how that does. I may have to get something else for tomorrow night.

So instead I'm reading about the Osberg ship (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oseberg_ship). I picked up this fascinating book about a Viking woman from a later era than the ship and its final passengers but it is making me curious about all kinds of things. I love the way it is written... lots of rabbit trails to follow. I may even end up reading the Icelandic Sagas despite their emotional connection in my head with the Arse.

The women in the book (and Sagas) seem to be ignored on Wikipedia.
