I accidentally just deleted the entire entry I was going to post this morning. It's gone, and I'm too irritated to rewrite it, but I'm telling you about it anyway so you realize that the intent was there.
My clumsiness has really gotten the best of me lately. Today it's the entry and yesterday- it was pants. I went to the mall yesterday and bought two new pairs of pants. Then I went home and spilled bleach on two pairs in the current pant rotation. So I broke even on pants yesterday. Two pairs gained, two pairs lost.
Hopefully the reason I'm so clumsy is related to how tired I am all day. I say hopefully, because then this segue will make sense.
I've been falling asleep at all the wrong times lately. Like, when people are talking to me. Or in my car. And constantly at my desk. So Wednesday night, my doctor is sending me to a sleep lab.
I show up Wednesday evening at 9:00. I can't drink alcohol that day, and no caffeine after 5:00. I also can't take a nap, which lately has become IMPOSSIBLE for me. I've been awake for about three hours right now, and I already want a nap so bad I could cry.
I also have to make sure I shampoo my hair- so all the ELECTRODES don't slide off my head. Electrodes applied with "paste tape and stickers." Then I somehow have to fall asleep in a different bed, by myself, with electrodes on my head. ON CAMERA.
Then at 7:00 in the morning, I have to get up and wash my hair again for the application of more electrodes. Then according to the words of the sleep doctor, they "torture" me all day. This involves telling me I can go back to sleep, but then waking me back up. All day.
So, hey, I'll get back to you after I've spent 20 hours in a sleep lab and tell you how that went. But I'm still kind of mad about deleting that first entry, so this is it. Have a good week. |
