good morning! just reporting that it was a god-awful experience. not only was i wired up extremely uncomfortably and very restricted in movement, that has got to be the lumpiest, most unpleasant mattress i've ever tried to sleep on. army and camping mattresses are luxury compared to that torture device.
i was worried that they'd send me home after learning that i'd eaten two rows of dark chocolate after dinner, forgetting that that's the equivalent of a cup of tea / a third of a cup of instant coffee (about 25mg). but caffeine before bedtime was not the problem.
i spent all night unsuccessfully trying to find a position that wasn't actively hurting me, both my neck and my lower back. occasionally i'd turn in a way that made me sure i'd ripped out a cable or something. the things up my nose made it impossible to sneeze or blow my nose, and the air-con made sure i was dried out by morning even though i *needed* it because i was wearing the deep-winter jammies gd made for me.
there was no reading. no playing sudoku until my eyes drooped. i know that i did actually fall asleep once or twice, but for the most part it was just a waking nightmare right before another stressful day at work (i'm trying to finish up the PR from yesterday on my work computer and i'm still having trouble) followed by a wedding.
good grief.
