That fragile state of being where you haven't gone to bed yet but are on the verge of falling asleep. You know you should get up and go to bed but in doing so there is an inherent danger you will awaken yourself too much by undressing, brushing teeth etc. that you will lose your sleep mojo, rendering you unable to fall asleep.
