Complete darkness and silence are my two best friends at night, at least ordinarily. It's actually sort of funny, because I used to be absolutely terrified of the dark when I was a child, for quite some time I literally kept the light in my room on while I went to sleep. Not a nightlight, an ordinary lamp. I have no idea how I was able to do that now, honestly. I can't sleep in a well-lit room, even when the sun first starts coming up and the faintest of its rays start slipping through the window between the shutters in the morning, it keeps me awake if I'm awake already.
