I've taken to wearing earplugs at night, even though there aren't any neighbors behind our house. Since I'm an audio guy, and a somewhat light sleeper, I'm sensitive to whatever sounds there may be during the night... the moron neighbor's dog coming out through the "doggy door" at 3 am to bark at the air, a distant train horn, the wind, etc. I can't help it - my brain is wired to listen for and analyze sound even when I don't want to. Earplugs make a big difference, and, they reduce my day-night average exposure level, which is also a good thing.
