I used something like this to help sleep:

Side sleeping worked as well, but I ended up sleeping on one side so much it didn't help keep things symmetrical when I started walking again.
Lots of classic nintendo gaming, ice cream, self-care. I was lucky to have a good friend that checked in on me frequently and helped me around the house. I recommend staying in bed for the first 24 hours with your leg as elevated as much as you can. I had this bad boy: https://www.amazon.com/ProCare-Elevation-Foam-Support-Pillow/dp/B00P3D4PG4/ref=sr_1_2_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1466686506&sr=8-2&keywords=orthopedic+leg+wedges
and it was heaven-sent.
The nerve block is gonna be good for about 36-72 hours (mine lasted 3 days, they really juiced me!) but don't let that deter you from taking your oxycodone/whatever they prescribe you... You don't want the pain to hit without having anything to help.
Biggest thing: don't be alone. Get a bedside urinal. Eat ice cream. Be good to yourself.
