I use TV to occupy my mind when I cannot sleep. My brain injury makes it impossible for me to read for pleasure so TV is all that is left. If it wasn't for the cable/satellite channels, I would be in deep trouble. I have even learned that some infomercials can be good for insomnia.

I will paste it here for you, & I am hoping you will tell me if you could read it, & if so, how easy or hard was it for you?
This is weird, but interesting!
