"Jonah could not sleep he was excited about his new job."

This is a run-on (two independent clauses joined without proper punctuation or a conjunction). Correct fixes:
- Jonah could not sleep. He was excited about his new job.
- Jonah could not sleep; he was excited about his new job.
- Jonah could not sleep because he was excited about his new job.
