Is Insomnia contagious?

So, over the years I've had this intermittent, transient insomnia. No biggie. It comes for a few days a week for a few weeks, then it's gone. No biggie. Not sure what makes it happen, not sure what makes it go away. That's cool. I can deal.

Only.

This time it's not getting much better.

Lots of stress at work, lots of personal stress, lots of reflection on things with HER, growth with SLPTG, etc. Stress, historically, has not been the event which gets my insomnia started, but, hey, it sure can contribute, right?

Staying at SLPTG's has been a nightmare. The pitter patter of animal feet, the sounds that I'm not used to hearing don't allow me to sleep. So, it's usually 90 minutes or so of uninterrupted sleep per night. Ouch. That hurts. But. It's not getting better. So, I'm not there a lot, but, I am there sometimes.

So, when you're sawing logs, know that I'm counting sheep, counting protrusions (tiny stalagtites) from the textured ceiling, counting anything that might help me sleep.

I'm hoping SLPTG doesn't catch it. Then we're both fucked.
