What a Face!

Look at how efficient I am! Both nostrils at one time!

I am feeling much better now that I am on my antibiotics. I am not breathing as hard, I'm hardly coughing at all, and I haven't had a fever since I started the medicine. Yay! I went back to school on Monday, and unless I get sick tomorrow, this will be my first full week of school since the first week. Wow!

Tomorrow night is my sleep study. Daddy is complaining that he will have to sleep by himself all night. Mommy said tomorrow night will be the first time she'll only have to listen to one person snore all night, instead of two! I don't think I'm going to like all of the electrodes they are going to glue on me. In fact, they really should just use super glue, because I plan on ripping each one off immediately after it's applied.

Here is what the brochure says they do during the sleep study: Eight or more electrodes are attached to the scalp with a special glue. These determine your level of sleep by recording brain waves and eye movements. Pairs of electrodes are attached to the underside of the chin to record muscle tone. This determines REM sleep as muscle tone disappears in REM. Electrodes are applied to the lower portion of each leg to monitor leg movement. Two elastic-like bands are placed around the chest and abdomen to record breathing effort. A probe is placed on a finger to record oxygen levels and patches are applied to the chest to record the heartbeat. The technologist is located in an adjacent area with the recording equipment.

We are supposed to get the results mailed to us in 72 hours. Mommy is hoping I will actually sleep, instead of waking up at 2:30 in the morning to have my own personal party in the crib. Would I ever do anything like that?? Yeah--I did it last night!
