If one of you is conditioned to fall asleep to Jimmy Kimmel's voice
on late-night TV while the other needs silence, you might need to look
into headphones, especially the wireless kind. A timer is also a good
idea; agree to set it for 15 or 30 minutes, by which time the TV watcher
will have sacked out anyway, says Breus. If the noise can't be totally
shut out, agree to keep the TV volume low, then bring a fan into the
bedroom next to your side and keep it on all night. It's a simple
white-noise infusion that can drown out the voices on the tube. If
you're out of options, foam earplugs you can buy in a drugstore can be
surprisingly effective.
