      This article was intended to be published in the December, 2021 issue of Sleep Health. However, due to an unfortunate confluence of late-semester chaos, the omicron variant of COVID-19, and a series of oversights, it was left out. We are, therefore, publishing it in this issue, with our apologies. We're grateful for everyone's patience and grace, and we hope that you can read this article in good health and with fond memories of the holidays.
