<gets dlowan a mug of hot milk and a heating pad>

Here, now, take a hot bath (no, don't put the heating pad in the bath water), then you can have these things and snuggle into bed. Do you want I should read a story? Here's one: "Oracle DBA Checklists".

Ahem.

Once upon a time, there was a magical database administrator who lived near an enchanted database. One day, three bears ....

Actually, when I was a kid, my Dad used to explain refrigeration in order to get us to sleep. The story apparently also worked with my nephew (and it's also worked with my mother), so refrigeration is three-generation tested.

Goddess! It is too late to go back to sleep now! It is nearly six.

Fortunately, Margo was also sleepless.

Actually, I am a wee tad hung over, too.

Gonna be a bad day at Black Rock for this Bunny!

Yeah, work is the curse of the drinking class. The best way to avoid hangovers is never to give 'em a chance to take hold. Ensure a sufficient supply of booze. You may not be able to drink your troubles away, but you can keep 'em so busy treadin' beer they don't have opportunity to bother you.

The problem is that when questioned, reality has a way of coming back with answers both unexpected and inconvenient. I've found it much less hassle to just get along with it rather than argue with it. I guess that pretty much verifies that wimmins is real, too.

That's not folklore, that's urban myth.
