Huh, interesting. Thanks! I knew about the sleep scientists, and as I indicated first learned about dorveilles from medieval history. But hadn't thought about anthropology.
Fieldwork in bedrooms must be interesting.

"Brood" — oh I know that feeling. Although it's not so much common in my dorveilles as in the times when I can't get to sleep to start the night.
Haven't tried the podcast trick: sounds good, thanks! Because reading involves light, which must make some contribution to wakefulness. Or if I knew Braille ...

Agreed, "dorveille" was a magnificent find for me just on its own. That satisfied feeling you get when "they've got a word for that."
And the light it shines (ahem) onto medieval history was an added plus.
Glad you're still staving off true insomnia!
