I've driven 60 plus miles into work myself and in heavy commute traffic (no fun.. I know). And I used to work at night once; Worked in an observatory and always had to adjust my sleep to pull all-nighters (driving up the mountain was the 60+ mile drive).
Don't know what your evening hours are, but I hope you're getting some sleep.
As for your CD drive... all I can suggest is looking for a plug-in that would work with your system. I know my own brother's had some CD drive problems.. he's looking at an external hard drive, like one's being sold through Office Max, Best Buy and other places. They're only a 100 bucks or so, and into the Teri-byte range (HUDGE).
In the mean time (pours a lager) "clink" don't let it get you down... it'll get better.
So hard to sleep in the daylight hours. My solution was: (1) blackout shades on all the windows near the bedroom; (2) a eye mask to shield my eyes from any other light the shades missed; (3) foam earplugs to cut the noise, and; (4) I shut down all the phones so they wouldn't ring and wake me.
Cumbersome, but it worked. And, since the alarm clock was near my bed, it was close enough to cut through the earplugs.
On the CD drive... Let me ask by bro what he's been looking into... if he gives me a brand name I'll pass it on.
Do take care Emo.
