another update
My plan of checking lj more has failed.
I haven't even played Farmville on fb much in the past couple of weeks.
I had the second sleep study and got my air-flow rate adjusted and a new mask for my CPAP machine...but I still haven't noticed an improvement in my tiredness. It's all very disappointing. I was really hoping for a significant difference in how I feel -- the "night and day" difference so many people have mentioned -- and I just haven't had it. And I hate the new mask. It's uncomfortable, the but the sleep tech said I'd get used to it in about 10 days. Gee, how nice.
I had a scare with my retinas a couple of weeks ago too. I thought my left retina was bleeding again because one weekend I noticed floaters. In the past seven years, that has meant bleeding. So I had to call off sick the day after MLK day (and thus not get paid for that holiday) and visit the eye doc. Luckily, he said my retinas are NOT bleeding, and that the floaters are just benign. I was so relieved. I was picturing going through all the laser surgeries and eye injections and everything all over again...only to end up blind anyway.
I got outed at work too...on my plans to quit this summer and move to KS, where my fiance teaches. We're getting married in June, if everything works out. Nothing fancy, just going down to the City-County Building. If everything works out, that is. I wasn't planning on telling my boss until I was turning in my notice, but my boss' boss noticed my t-shirt yesterday, which had the logo of the university where banazir teaches...and which happens to be her rival university...and asked about it. I told her my fiance teaches there, then she asked about our wedding date. I thought for a second about lying, but I didn't. I said in June and that he does a special program with students in Illinois, so we'd be moving sometime this summer. All the other team managers were there with her and one started joking with me about how I hadn't told my manager.
I hope this doesn't have any negative repercussions on me at work. Or that it jinxes our plans. His parental situation is so complicated. Damn old-fashioned-values immigrants.
We'll see. *crosses fingers*
