Bass Ackwards sometimes.

The paperwork they sent out tells you to go in the D lobby entrance, down a couple halls and down an elevator....when the sleep study rooms are right inside the E lobby entrance...and both could easily be kept open, but apparently E lobby is not....weirdo's.
the tech who attached all the sensors on me was fascinated by my hair, really she was. as she was placing the sensors around the hairline area of my face, she complimented me on how soft my hair was. Shortly after this, another nurse/tech came to the door of the room and asked my tech about something, and while she was answering the questions the tech started playing with my hair. I didn't fully realize this until she told the other nurse/tech to come see how soft my hair was. While they were admiring it, one asked if it was hard to curl, and when I said it was natural, they oooed and aah'd some more, and then my tech told me that I had to let it grow out, and when it did, I had to come back and let her play with it........yeeeah.
This led to talk about how so many of the people who come in for sleep studies don't seem to get the fact they're gonna be covered in sensors, and the cleaner your hair and body are, the better they'll attach(and stay attached while you sleep)
I'll find out once the results get sent to my doctor and he has time to go over them.
Though the tech said I "slept enough for what they need" I still took a long long nap from around noon till about 6pm...so no wonder it's almost 4 am and I'm still up, though, some of that might be just cause I've not lied down yet, so I'm gonna go do that. in my bed, that I can lay how I want, with whatever pillows I want!
