Me too. Even then sometimes I have to trample the ground thoroughly to break all the sharp sticks, > I also skip a pillow. After removing the sleeping bag from the compression sack, I stuff various pieces of clothing into the compression sack. Punch it a bit here and there for shaping, and that works well for me< I bring a pillow case for the same purpose. I carry a warm synthetic down jacket, which is very soft, and I stuff it in the pillow case. You can ditch the stove and fuel, then pick up some food near your camp. I find that eating bagels, nuts, fruit, turkey jerky, milk, etc. is more relaxing than having to cook and clean up.
