All right, so the results are in. This method hasn't worked for me yet, but I think I might be able to fix that. After trying all different variations of this technique, I think tonight I'm going to do the following.

- Take a B-Complex vitamin before I go to sleep (they definitely help with my ability to stay more aware when I'm falling asleep)
- Set the iPod on a 60 min. sleep timer and just lie there listening to it (kinda reminds me of WILD)
- Set the iPod alarm clock to wake me up 4-6 hours later by playing the exact same vocal track I was listening to while I was sleeping (I have to figure out a way to make it loud enough for it to have an effect, but not so loud that it will wake me up).

Anyway, that's the plan for this week. I'll let you guys know if anything develops.
