LynetteC: Only one? God, I wish I had your willpower. So far I've bought 26 games for my shelf and 12 codes and I'm pretty damn sure there's more to come!
Some willpower yes, but being broke has more to do with it :) Well, I was having around 40$, but then spent around half of them on Valkyria Chronicles and Black Seas Culture Pack for Rome 2. Though I must admit that this particular sale is not that interesting for me as I already own most of the titles I wants to play (even then, with more cash I would probably already bought five titles at least).

HypersomniacLive: I wish I could sleep ten hours straight, so please don't tease me.

Emm... got anything for a poor soul that shies away from chocolate?

*ducks*
If avoiding caffeine*, a nice cup of soothing tea (chamomile, sleepy time, or something similar) with honey is one of my go-to drinks. If you're after something sweet that's not chocolate, I can heartily recommended a good pumpkin pie. (My favorite dessert. :)

* Unlike me, who can down strong tea or soda - not being a coffee person - and then go straight to sleep. Caffeine doesn't do anything to me but help with my headaches, much to my dismay on my insomnia days.

Very good suggestion! If pumpkin pie (yum!) isn't the ticket perhaps a nice New York cheesecake with fresh berries?
I heartily second the Sleepy Time tea, very tasty too.

donsanderson: I can see your case will be a difficult one. Let me think on this for a while.;)
Thank you doctor, but please don't take too long.


@FearfulSymmetry and @penumbren

Tea's just fine, so long it's not chamomile (for some reason, it triggers my gag reflex). The honey though might be a problem (prefer hot beverages to not be sweet), can we add some lemon at least?

I got a sleeping disorder, so these tricks don't really help. Oh and yes, if it's finally time to doze off, I will no matter how much or strong coffee I had.

Yeah, chamomile's not my thing either. I realized it probably wouldn't help you sleep, but I thought it might make you feel more comfortable, as it does for me. :-)
Well, tragedy has struck! I just smashed my coffee pot all over the kitchen floor. :O
Glad I'm out of money for games anyway, a sale without coffee just isn't civilized. Sadly that means no money for a new pot either, time to get creative for a couple of weeks.
Tea's great iced for summer but I NEED MY COFFEE! ;) "Cowboy Coffee" here I come.
Looks like there are more detailed patterns in the game reappearances than just "games from Day X tend to come back on Day Y" - nearly all the intervals between multiple appearances amount to either 84, 96, 108, 120 or 132 slots (= 56 / 64 / 72 / 80 / 88 hours).

That sucks! I was about to get annoyed at you for making me want pumpkin pie but you have my sympathies now.

All this talk of evening beverages and snacks makes me feel the need to describe my upcoming "wild night" - I have a piece of tiramisu in the refrigerator and a breakfast stout in the cellar. Going to settle in with some Agents of SHIELD before my bedtime ;) Good luck finding sleep HypersomniacLive - though with a name like that... well... ;)

You can make coffee with a tea ball. They are really cheap, usually under a dollar

Wish I could send you a nice pot for all the medical help you're providing me.
Oh wait, perhaps send me the bill when you get a new one! \(^o^)/

Actually that sounds like a rather enjoyable night.
Thanks for the sympathy. ;)
BTW: penumbren brought up pumpkin pie, I was the brownie and cheesecake guy. :)

Oh man....losing the coffee pot qualifies as VERY VERY BAD. Why can't it be Star Trek already where people can gift solid items instantaneously rather than just games?
