First post is pretty much me.
I cannot sleep with any noise. Birds chirping, tapping, water droplets falling, anything; it needs to be absolutely silent. It also has to be pitch black or I won't be able to sleep ever, hahaha. The house phones here have a little light at the top of the phone so I always have to position it so I can't see it. Same with the clock, gotta push that darn thing out of my sight so I don't have to see the eye-killing glowy time.
