All alone

wynterwolf47 is traveling today, so I'm a co-dependent with a co-. It's very stressful. She and I don't really have any fandoms significantly in common right now, but she's still my clone and we still spam each other all day long. What am I going to dooooooooooooooooo without her?????

I went to the doctor this morning and she's referring me to a sleep clinic, where I'll probably have to do a sleep study. She suspects sleep apnea. I didn't tell her I'd already diagnosed myself on the interwebs, and thus approved of her medicine. Anyway, I'm really looking forward to doing a sleep study, even though it'll be horrible. Just the idea of going in and sleeping on purpose in front of people, and with things attached to you...it's kind of terrible and fascinating, and it's something I want to have experienced in my lifetime, so I'm actually excited about it. Also, I might get a Darth Vader mask to sleep with, which is...actually a major hassle, but people say that getting sleep apnea treated changes your life, and that's what I'm hoping for. I'd like to have energy again. And sleep less than ten hours a day and actually FEEL like I've slept.

Here's a great little story I ran across last night while wandering through del.icio.us looking for more bandslash. I'm much less invested in Panic! at the Disco than I am other bands, but I've run out of stories in MCR and FOB, so I'm reading them. It's a futuristic Spencer/Jon AU, but it's worth a read even if it's not your fandom and/or pairing. It's a great commentary on the way classifying people into rigid categories of gay/straight is unrealistically limiting, and it's entertaining at the same time.

Spencer knows Ryan has been through this as well, or at least something like it. Ryan had been in a relationship with a woman until last year, steady and sincere and ready to commit, and then Brendon had waltzed in and turned his life upside down within a matter of days. Spencer doesn’t know if Ryan would have been tagged pink if he hadn’t met Brendon, although the government tells them the science of genetics doesn’t lie, so he most likely would have. He doesn’t know what Ryan would have done, but as it turned out it didn’t matter, because Ryan got tagged and committed, and Brendon happily claims full responsibility for all of it.

And now I should go try to make a dent in the huge list of emails that built up while I was on vacation. Oh! But I get a minion with a brain (hopefully) for a few weeks! I need to train a new guy to be my counterpart in another part of the institution, and I plan to do it partly by giving him a lot of MY more tedious backlog to do. Hands-on learning! We both win! His boss is in China for two weeks, so I should be allowed to bend him to my will, too, without interference. Mwah hah hah hah!!!

rec, bandslash
