Does lying back and thinking of England, and wondering when its going to finish, count as waiting to go to sleep?

Eyes closed, although being 7 months pregnant and having a 16 month old daughter who thinks sleeping is for losers means I often miss out the 'waiting for sleep' bit. Usually asleep the second I lie down!

on topic,
I am envious of people who can sleep on command, I have to wait till my eyes are drooping before I can hope to have 4-5 hours of good sleep, so yeah eyes open till they can no longer be kept open

My mrs sleeps as soon as the head touches the pillow.

I'm not so great, I'm a nightmare for lying in bed and reading the news, sport, twatter, facebook etc on my phone for an hour or so.
