Some (bad) habits and the dreams

It seems to me that it doesn't matter if I do sports or exercise during the day (usually in the evening), the sleep doesn't come more easily. Of course there's the "two hour rule" for everybody, but for me there's a zero effect. I feel pretty much the same. Not that sports is the topic of the day, because I haven't had time for any exercise in the past month. Today I spend 10h 45 minutes at work. Add travel by tram there and back again, and you have a 12 hour day right there. Add 1,5 hours in the morning for the regular morning stuff, and you have 10,5 hours left. For sleeping?

It doesn't go like that. I've never been a person who can "let go of the day" very easily. I need time to do some random stuff or do nothing like watching tv and fooling around in the net. And I tend to spend a lot of that time thinking. Just, thinking. Which again is really bad for sleep.

Last week I was so happy that I got the dreams back. Very vivid images and experiences, just like before. Adding to my happiness was that I had to take in the melatonin (3 g)  from Monday to Thursday, and still I had the dreams. Before there's been some, but not as coherent. Good or bad, I have no idea, but it's good I don't have to compromise between sleep and dreams anymore. That's just cruel.
