i can't sleep anymore

 For four nights in a row now, I have not been able to sleep well, and it's really getting old.  It doesn't matter what time I go to bed, I just cannot fall asleep until at least 2 am.  If I go to bed early at 11, I fall asleep at 2.  If I go to bed at midnight or 1, I fall asleep at 2.  I'm not drinking caffeine in the evenings, I'm not sleeping in until ridiculous times in the morning, and I'm not going running at 10 pm, so it's not those usual things that used to keep me awake.  I just can't turn my brain off.  Sometimes it's school stuff, and I can't get my mind out of the study mode that I've been in all day, but a lot of times it's other things that seem really stupid.  Last night, I had the song "Why You'd Want to Live Here" by Death Cab for Cutie stuck in my head, and I laid in bed for hours imagining I was playing the guitar and drum parts.  I like that song, but it was awful to try to fall asleep and just toss and turn with the same song stuck in my head for that long.  Other days this week, I couldn't stop replaying shots in my head from the round of golf I'd played that afternoon.  And sometimes, it's just general wondering about lives of me and other people I know.  Whatever it is, it always sucks and I getting sick of it because it makes studying all afternoon really hard because I get really sleepy.  I took this break to write this in hope that it'll wake me up and give me energy to chug through some thermo problems before a review session this evening.

I listen to podcasts (usually NPR most emailed stories or the News from Lake Woebegone) at bedtime and that helps me fall asleep or at least not get into ridiculous mental patterns because I'm half-listening to the content, but it's all so soothing that it makes me sleepy. Just a suggestion.

I think your answer seems pretty obvious. Lots and lots of alcohol.

I'm not sure how well that would help with my sleepy problems at school the next day. :)
