Lesson learned
If, on returning from a nighttime walk, you notice that your apartment is unreasonably warm, especially considering the 50-degree “chill” outside, you should not chalk this up to “residual daytime heat” and spend the next three hours wondering why you can’t sleep. It’s much easier to just turn off the oven.
[Corollary: If you tend toward this sort of absent-mindedness, don’t leave the fresh-baked cookies on top of the stove. They’ll be hard as rocks come morning.]

Haha, I would totally do the oven thing. I accidentally left my radiator/heater on all day and my apartment was a freaking sauna when I got home over 8 hours later. I also do the food thing all the time. I wake up in the morning, go into my kitchen, and go “awww, damnit”.
