Postscript

(Insomnia is making me very, very grumpy! Have been trying to go to sleep for more than three hours now, and it's just not happening; turned the computer back on just now to email boot camp instructor to tell him I won't be there tomorrow, and have reset alarm for latest possible time that will still let me meet up with my dad before we go to the theater. It's 2:45 now, and I have given in and taken a tablet - if I can sleep from 3 till 10, that is still pretty good. If you are reading this and are a person who falls easily and regularly to sleep not too long after your head hits the pillow, take a moment to feel lucky - not being able to fall asleep is the bane of my existence!)
