Here's what I recommend: 1. good: get a box fan and point it right at you 2. better, but expensive: a window a/c unit. http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/sr=1-1/qid=1181092698/ref=sr_1_1/602-5175675-8620643?ie=UTF8&asin=B000KPY3LC 3. best & cheapest: you live in Utah--it gets cold outside at night. buy one of those window fans and force the cold air in. We had one in Milwaukee and it worked wonders. http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/602-5175675-8620643?asin=B000FIIXLA&AFID=Froogle&LNM=B000FIIXLA|Honeywell_Twin_Window_Fan__White_HW628&nAID=14110944&ref=tgt_adv_XSG10001 #s 1 & 3 will work, cost less than the pills, and have fewer side effects...

I don't really know *how* they work, but man I'm thankful I did those times. High stress times, etc and a little non-prescription pill puts you right out so you can tackle it again tomorrow.. I'm sure I sound like a commercial, but if you're having trouble for that long, man, I'd do it. Not getting sleep is just going to lead to other health problems.
