This pretty much describes by sleeping issues completely. Some key phrases that stuck out to me while reading that:- People with DSPS tend to fall asleep some hours after midnight and have difficulty waking up in the morning ( Read more... )

Fun night last night... Heather and I played poker with Kim, Eric, Becky, John, Libby (Becky's sister), and John (Libby's husband). I actually won a game! Up until now, the closest I've come was splitting the pot with Becky a couple times. But this time it got down to just me and Kim, and Kim doesn't split pots. :-P It went back and forth for a ( Read more... )

Man... Fantastic day yesterday. :-) I got to sleep in (always nice), did all my errands, and got a quick workout in at the gym. Then I met up with Heather... Her firm was having their holiday party last night. It was really cool, because they had it at the Tallahassee Automobile Museum. Whoever owns that place is obviously a huge Batman fan! In ( Read more... )

I was channel surfing last night and happened across Ghostbusters II. MAN it had been forever since I had seen that movie! I watched about 10 minutes of it before realizing that it's pretty dumb to watch the cropped, commercial-laden version when I have the DVD sitting on my rack. So I popped it in and reconnected a bit with my childhood ( Read more... )

My cell phone had a bit of an accident this past weekend... It was kind of funny, because on Friday night I was talking with my friend Tom and mentioned how I'd had the phone for over three years and it was working better than ever. Then, as I slept that night, I must have tossed and turned. I knocked over the cup of water on my nightstand and didn ( Read more... )

I hate Daylight Savings Time. Why can't we just pick one way and stick with it, like Arizona does? "Springing forward" is the absolute worst, and seems to take me forever to recover from. Here it is, already after midnight and I'm not the least bit tired. If I went to bed now, I would no doubt lay awake for about two hours or so ( Read more... )

Right... Well, first things first. My cleaning did not go exactly as planned:1. Fix my constantly-running master bathroom toilet.
2. Clean off and organize my kitchen counter.
3. Drop off my lawn mower at Sears for a tune-up.4. Dust my living room ( Read more... )

Made it... With seven minutes to spare! ;-) Hope everyone reading this had a fantastic Thanksgiving today... Mine was very relaxing, which I was definitely thankful for! I slept in, got up, hung around with my family, ate a ton of turkey and stuffing, watched football, kicked some butt at gin rummy, watched some more football, ate some more food, ( Read more... )

This Auto-PAP stuff is really starting to tick me off! I was able to make it up to American Homepatient yesterday afternoon and picked up the missing power cord. I filled up the humidifier with distilled water, put my mask on, and turned on the machine. I swear, it was like I walked into Poor Paul's! Whoever had this machine before me was a heavy ( Read more... )

I went by American Homepatient this morning and picked up my new Auto-PAP machine. It's going to vary the air pressure while I sleep and record whatever pressure helps me the most. Then the sleep doc can set my CPAP to that... I've really been looking forward to it, because I think my CPAP machine is set too low right now. Nearly every night, I end ( Read more... )
