Ask Amy: Maid of Honor doesn’t say yes to the dress

Amy Dickinson, Tribune Content Agency on

In the future, put anything you don’t want consumed – whether it is alcohol, leftovers, or Mint Milano cookies – out of reach (in an extreme case, you could use a cooler in the trunk of your car).

Dear Amy: This is for “Constantly Tuned In,” who keeps the TV on all night – but then the TV awakens her.

Here’s how I cured my insomnia: I listen to a very long audio book over and over.

It helps me fall asleep, but I know the story, so it doesn't keep me awake.

Unlike a TV or radio, an audio book has no sudden alterations in sound to awaken me.

I have been listening to something all night for over 40 years.

 

– Sleeping in Culver City

Dear Sleeping: I love your solution.
