    I can normally sleep anywhere if I'm tired, but 2 exceptions are next to a fool idling at about 1800 rpm with an air-dryer spitting every 10 seconds at 80 decibles and also next to a R/R track with trains speeding by every 15 minutes and the gates dropping and the bells dinging.

    That was something I forgot to put in there, if someones got an air leak and thats popping off every 30 seconds I start to get really aggravated. That will keep me up all night no matter how tired I am. One would think that it would keep them up to but I guess not.

    I'm one of those guy's that likes to drive during the day and sleep at night. So, I try and plan things out so that I can sleep at night. Now, there have been occasions where I had to sleep during the day and that just doesn't work for me.

    I used to switch every two weeks, when I slep during the day I would try an be parking about 9 am and I would park in the back corner away from the traffic and nose in. Never had to many problems sleeping during the day cause I was usually whooped from driving all night and morning. But its worth it I love driving over nights and through the wee hours of the morning, cause that road is almost all yours.
