edit to remove work bitching...
So yeah, I think I will take a break and watch junk tv or something.
So, how was your summer? Mine was fun. Saw some fish. Went mad with hunger. Hallucinated a whole bunch.

Our wings are not tired.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Fucking cold. I feel like death on a stick.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Left work two hours early, though I never saw any communication officially stating I could do that. Most people(including the head of the lab and my supervisor) weren't around, so why not?

I'm leaving in a few minutes. I'm not the last one here today! I decided that since we had the holiday on Monday and we were told to leave 2 hours early today, I can go when I hit 30 hours worked for the week.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That sounds right, -t.

Thank you for the validation!

Hey I just realized I can assume Hazel isn't ALSO allergic to normal cat food, and start giving her all the half-full bags I still have. So there's an upside.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
In the quest to visit all of the doctors before my insurance resets, I had a sleep apnea study. I actually had the first one in Houston, so I needed the follow-up one, where they put you on a machine and adjust it throughout the night.
Did this Wednesday night, when I was starting to get sick and we had just gotten back from holiday travel the day before. For whatever combination of reasons, I slept like crap during the study. Did you know you could go a night without entering REM sleep? I did not. And the technician said they were doing a split study, where they monitored me part of the night and used the mask part of the night.
Got to the doctor today and found out that the technician MISREAD the damn orders, and I should have had a full night of the mask. So I have a machine to try based on limited info, and we'll see how it is in a month.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Did you know you could go a night without entering REM sleep? I did not.
Tim did a home sleep study and then lab sleep study this year (he ALSO hit his out-of-pocket limit this year, woo! he tried to find one more medical procedure he could have today before it all resets Sunday, but no dice), and in one of them -- I think the lab study -- he didn't enter REM sleep.
You guys can be freaky sleep buddies.

Oh jeez, Dana. I imagine you were pretty tired on Thursday! Here's hoping the machine helps you.
