the_rckScott is anxious about doing well at his new job. Nothing terrible has happened, but he's feeling like anything going wrong could destroy his life and therefore mine and Cordelia's. Vast responsibility. From what I can tell, he's really well suited to this job, and the people he's working with are being really supportive, so I'm treating it as jitters rather than as something with a strong basis in reality. Big change is really, really terrifying.
I had an appointment with the sleep disorders clinic yesterday.evalerie gave me a ride there. I took the bus home. Climbing the hill was interesting because I was feeling both really, really cold and really, really overheated. My hands and ears ached from the cold, and I knew that my bare arms would be unhappy if I took off my coat, but I very badly wanted to because my down coat felt like too much. It was in the mid-20s F, I think, and it was windy, so this was not about my coat being too heavy for the weather.
The PA I saw at the sleep disorders clinic thinks my c-PAP stuff is all really good. The fact that I don't feel like I'm sleeping particularly better isn't under consideration, just that I'm averaging 0.3 apnea episodes per hour. I think that, mostly, she was of the mind that the real problem right now is my window for sleeping meaning that I'm not getting more than six hours any school night.
The Story I'm Not Writing is something like a dozen words short of 22K now. My Worldbuilding Exchange story is almost at 500 words (I've used some html tags which Gdocs counts weirdly, so I need to see how AO3 counts the dratted thing). I did some brainstorming about it yesterday. Right now, I just have to buckle down and keep going back. I can only manage about thirty words at a time because it's a weird style for me, one that's not poetry but more in that direction in terms of the effort to get the pieces in the right places. I don't have time to count on rewriting, so this may end up being it.
Anyway... 500 more words on this. I can do this.
