Wesley: Feng Shui. Gunn: Right. What's that mean again? Wesley: That people will believe anything. Actually, in this place, Feng Shui will probably have enormous significance. I'll align my furniture the wrong way and suddenly catch fire or turn into a pudding.

they were a little too eager to get me to try out the CPAP device

HA! Yeah, me too. I think they were disappointed that my sleeping patterns didn't necessitate it.

Did you go to the place in Beverly?

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

my dreams have been vivid and my sleep particularly strange recently.

I dreamed about zombies last night. All. Night. Long.

On the plus side, I kicked a lot of zombie ass. Or, more accurately, I beheaded a lot of zombie heads. Including, for some reason, Pierce Brosnan, which made me really sad, because I didn't want him to be a zombie, but then he wanted to eat my brains, and I had to chop his head off.

Yeah, I have NO idea where all that came from.

random: I wish I could keep ξ and ζ straight. They're unfortunately both labelled squiggle in my head and I have to look them up every.single.time.

Did you go to the place in Beverly?

Yep. The bed was comfy (I think it was a memory foam mattress) but all the aparatus was distracting. I'm not sure how they think you can sleep on your back when the back of your head is covered in tape and electrodes.

I mean, apnea is a huge, damaging condition and I'm a known high-volume snorer (from a family of high-volume snorers), but that's the big reason I trained myself so that I CAN'T sleep on my back. The big sticking point is I DON'T get 8-10 hours sleep and still feel tired; on good nights I get 4-6 hours and feel rested. The big problem is when I can't get/can't get back to sleep and only get 0-3 hours (at least as I perceive it).

I loved that mattress, I've been coveting one since that study. The sleep center's in the same building Tom works in!

What is even happening?

So, who is excited about Grindhouse?

It looks like the Dick Flick to end all Dick Flicks, which I don't mean as a criticism, just a comment on the genre.

sara, you just totally won the random contest.

That was the first true memory foam I've tried, and I did like it, though, restless as I am, it felt like I was moving out of a ditch every time I tried to shift over which was doubly akward with all the electrodes attached.

That's such an odd office complex, what with the resturaunts tucked in along with all the offices.

Also? Doggie Day Care!

Yes, I am dawdling finishing up my annotated bibliography. Also, I am annoyed that a critical piece of information must be purchased and not online. Ah well, I'll skip it for the bibliography and try to get a library copy for the lit review.

Today's forecast is partly cloudy with chances of concentrated napping. Man, I'm sleepy.

Doggie Day Care!

Hah! Totally missed that. It was the Acapulco's Resturaunt that struck like it was hiding from the world. I've eaten at the one out by Sudbury, and that wasn't bad. No idea how the Beverly one is.
