On Wednesday night I went to the sleep clinic per my doctor's request. She thinks that I might have sleep apnea, but I don't think so. Anyways I get there and it takes 45 minutes to hook me up to all the wires and electrodes. It was strange sleeping somewhere like that, but it was also kind of like sleeping in a hotel room. The TV didn't work, but I had brought my homework for my writing class. I didn't realize that they had wireless access until I was already in my car and I didn't really want to go back upstairs and pack up the laptop. I guess I get high scores in laziness. After we got me all wired up and tested to make sure it was all working correctly, I set to reading, since that's what I always do before going to bed. But I guess I read for longer than they wanted and the nurse called me over the intecom asking me to stop reading and go to sleep. I can tell you that it's hard to sleep wired up to stuff. The nurse told me I should be able to do so without too much trouble, but the bed was too soft to sleep on my side and then I just couldn't get comfortable. Then wake up was before 6am. We spent the time from when I woke up until I left getting all the wires off. And then it was back into the car in the dark to drive home. I just came home and get ontop of my bed for a nap. I needed extra sleep after the sleep clinic. It will take 2-3 weeks for the results and then I will see if it's all worth it. Last night I really appreciated sleeping in my own bed.
