So, since I can't seem to sleep anyway...

I was watching Colbert earlier, and there was a commercial for Lunesta. Among the listed side effects: Drowsiness.

Um, I might be off here, but isn't that a primary effect? In fact, isn't it sort of the whole point?

Heh. It probably means next-day drowsiness. But yeah, people who don't suspect that a sleeping pill will make you drowsy need to be shot and put out of their misery.

Apt song you're listening to. :)

That's always puzzled me about sleeping pill ads, although not as much as the "don't take if you have an enlarged prostate" warnings on painkillers specific for women in their period.
