Hour 300

Post by tetragon » Tue Nov 29, 2011 6:15 pm

I was poking through what little data my machine will show on its display, and noticed that if I'm nicely sleepy at bedtime, my alarm clock will go off just in time for the logged hours to total 300.0. It has only taken a month and a half to get here, with an average usage of six hours per night.

I need to go to my DME tomorrow to return the mask they loaned me (and bug them some more about masks), and I think I may ask for a commemorative print-out. Although, their reports wouldn't display the time in hours, just days, hours, minutes, and seconds.

And so I checked my machine after waking up, and what did I see? 300.2 hours. I wanted 300.0.

What have I learned in the past hundred hours? Aerophagia hurts, some masks that aren't my Swift FX let me sleep in positions that aren't on my back, both RTs at my DME tend to give me masks that are too large. What do I wish I learned? The big one is how to not feel horrible in the morning. Maybe the next hundred hours will bring that.
