I know you call it an iPod... I call it iPodSaver.
The only thing that let's me sleep in the hospital (during the day that is).
My great doctor wrote for "nothing between midnight and 6" which keeps me at nearly 6 hours of sleep a day, but then when you need a nap and the machines around you are beeping and people keep walking in "looking for something..." the ipod keeps you sane. Turn it up loud enough to keep all that out and fade away.
I prefer things that are really loud and hard for nap time, like Sugar or Queensrÿche. But my playlist is pretty eclectic.
BNL, Sheryl Crow, INXS, Guns n' Roses, The Doors, The Nylons, Dave Matthews Band, Blues Traveler, Offspring, The killers, The Black Crowes, No Doubt, The Beatles, Foo Fighters, Simon and Garfunkel, Bon Jovi, Skid Row, Everclear, The Police, and many others.
Music calms my beast like nothing else. Sadly it can't get me outta here. Soon I will get to go and be back to myself. Sometimes it just sucks to have to slow to a crawl for 10 days.

Sorry to hear that you're stick stuck in there. I'm glad you have an iPod to keep you at least a little sane. It's so hard to sleep well in the hospital. It usually takes me a week to catch up on my rest after I've been in-patient. Blah.
Try not to let it get to you too much. If you need to vent, go ahead and send me an email. I'm up at weird hours these days myself.
Get some sleep if you can.
Regards,
Lauren
Jack,
I can't believe I haven't read your blog until now. Thanks for your insight. Good luck during this hospital stay. Rock on.
Love and Light,
Christy
