Friday night – Fire flies

It’s an amazing and cool night up here in Vermont… The fire flies are going crazy. In honor of that I wore my glow-in-the-dark jacket when ‘Diane and I walked out it’s a Huntington gorge. On the way back we saw the most amazing fire fly displays

And I gave them a display of my own

I had to keep telling the lady fire flies that I was taken 🙂

I took the scary picture of ‘Kyle using the same ultraviolet light that I light up my coat… Pretty spooky

It’s high summer here… One of my favorite times of the year

Note all, nite sam

Thursday night – Perchance to dream

I’m still buzzing from the sleep study I did night before last… I was able to get these pictures of my polysomnograph at various stages… Here is me awake

Here’s me and stage two sleep

And here I am in a very nice REM

Aren’t they cute?… I feel like they’re trying to tell me something… Like I need more sleep.

Isn’t science wonderful?

Nite all, nite sam

Tuesday night – sleep study

Greetings from the residence Inn in Colchester Vermont. I’m here for an all night sleep study. I’ve been curious about this for many years and our PA jack suggested I go ahead and do it. They have a long waiting months for these but I was lucky to be able to slide in. It’s really cool because I’m hanging out with a group of people who are interested in sleep and dream states… So this is coming just when I’ve been thinking about sleep

The people here at the sleep center are amazing… The guy who wire me up his name Shand He’s really great… Very knowledgeable about sleep as he put on about 30 wires… No exaggeration I just tried to count them. I have electrolytes all over my head my chest my legs breathing things around my chest and abdomen and cannula up my nose. (Which is really the only weird thing)… It’s gonna be so interesting to see what we find… Sleep hasn’t been very easy for me this last year… I know I’m not alone in that. It’ll be interesting to see if there’s anything I can address.

It’ll be interesting to see if I can sleep with all the stuff hanging off of me… Somehow I think I’ll be able to

Pleasant dreams everyone

Nite all, nite sam !

Ps ..I just wanna put a shout out to shan-the man. The absolutely awesome Polysunambulist Who took care of me last night… It was such a cool experience I didn’t think I got any sleep but at 2o’clock he came in and switch me to a CPAP machine… I said I’ll never be able to sleep with th…… next Thing I knew it was morning and I have had the most wonderful four hours of sleep I can remember in my life

Anyway it was so great getting to know Shan. He was so knowledgeable and so helpful… Hoping to run into him somewhere else in life

If you’re having trouble sleeping I definitely suggest getting one of the sleep studies…
