the_rckI slept really badly last night. I know that I slept some because I remember weird dreams about desperately trying to find a comfortable place to sleep. I also remember looking at my bedside clock every half hour or so. Around 5 a.m., I started to overheat. I'm not sure why because the furnace didn't start running for a while after. I ended up with just a sheet.
I think the problem is that I didn't take Halcion because I didn't have to be up at a particular time. I thought that I had time to take a while falling asleep. Guess I need to discuss how to get back to being able to sleep without Halcion with my psychiatrist. I like the fact that it helps me not wake up repeatedly and that it leaves me feeling less anxious in the morning, but... This is not meant to be a long term medication.
Of course, even with the Halcion, I'm only getting four to six hours of sleep on school nights. That means that my overall pain levels are way up.
I did a little editing last night. My hope is to do more today and to post at least one completed story to![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
weissvsaiyuki. I'm sure that, if I finish another one later, I could post a link there and get a few readers. I just wouldn't earn points for the challenge. I may end up not editing as much on the current story as I probably should because the editing is mostly for description. Ideally, I want it there, but it's for people other than me because I don't notice the presence or absence of such details generally. My eyes glaze over when I try to read long descriptive passages. But this is an AU where the AU elements are largely visual window dressing. If they're not there, it kind of looks like a weird canon divergent AU. I suppose there's nothing wrong with that, in the end.
The story I'm least likely to finish today is the one that would net my team the most points. The one I'm likely to finish is the shortest of the three.
I saw a blurb a couple of days ago talking about an anime about an Olympic level figure skater who is having to compete against robot/android figure skaters in order to achieve her dreams. My tired brain immediately went, "Oh! John Henry." I'm pretty sure that that's not the angle, but...
