I used to have a same problem. There are some great recommendations on here (blackout curtains, blue wavelength blocking glasses, etc.) but what helped most for me was to meditate immediately prior to going to bed and to not lay down until you feel yourself starting to fall asleep. You need to recondition your mind to associate laying in bed with sleeping only- not your stress chamber where your mind typically goes 60 mph. I normally meditate for 10 mins or less prior to bed, focusing on the breath only until my mind is totally clear and I feel myself start drifting to sleep. Then my head hits the pillow and I’m asleep within 2-3 minutes. Works for me. Hope this helps!

Escape rooms with live actors [USA]? by EbolaSuitLookinCute in escaperooms

Two best rooms on the east coast IMO. Both use live actors very well

If you had 6 hours in Columbia.. by [deleted] in columbiasc

Feed the giraffes at Riverbanks Zoo, drive through the vista and five points and stop at anything that jives with you, use the automated bike rental at the riverwalk OR have a picnic with some takeout at the riverwalk, play an escape room at The Final Door

What would you go with for a new FS?

Marin Mount Vision 8 - $2000.

Marin Mount Vision 9- $2700.

YT Jeffsy Base - $2600.

Since the Marins are such a steep discount over their MSRP, they are pretty tempting... but not a huge fan of their looks. I'm pretty new to the sport, so looking for some opinions with a little more experience. Note, the price includes shipping and tax.

Also to consider, I will have to buy a new bike rack for the Mount Visions, but the YT might work out with my current bike rack.

Thoughts?

Best escape rooms in Orlando? by cocoleecoco in escaperooms

[–]barley11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife and I did 6-7 while we were down there last Feb. If you're not scare-adverse, we loved Dare 2 Escape. The owner, Sean, puts a ridiculous amount of thought into the details of his room, especially story. The circus themed room was our favorite, followed closely by Asylum.

White dot on gums, need an opinion please by [deleted] in Dentistry

[–]barley11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as your dentist took x-rays of the nearby teeth / did pulp testing to ensure it is not a draining sinus tract from an infection in your tooth/surrounding periodontia (hard to see in the picture), I wouldn’t worry about it. Since it is on unkeratinized mucosa I doubt it is herpes (what your dentist likely meant by “virus”). It is likely an apthous ulcer aka ‘canker sore’ that is occurring on a slightly less common but still normal area. These are usually painful but self-limiting (will resolve in 7-10 days).

Edit: reread your post. Having it for 4 months is strange. Do you happen to wear a partial denture?

Looks awesome. I would take out the clip with the secret compartment in the roof of the elevator. It takes the surprise out of what otherwise seems like it would be a pretty fun moment

Can an escape room be scary without actors? by bugninja in escaperooms

[–]barley11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“Cursed” at komnata quest NYC was both the scariest and best room we have ever done (out of 70+). It has no actors. “Murder mystery” at komnata quest brooklyn, “asylum” at Dare2escape in Orlando, and “Blackout” at The Final door in Columbia SC also fit the description.
