Happy Caturday?
In his cabaret performances, Adam Lambert does NOT play down The Gay!
Woo! Sing it, baby!

I woke up with no mask on this morning, and the machine turned off. Apparently, my sleeping consciousness was conscious enough to turn off the power. Yay!
But, boo on this still not going well. It took me less time to fall asleep last night, but I do remember being REALLY uncomfortable a few times because I didn't feel like I could exhale all the way, especially through my mouth. I have a tendency to breathe really deeply, I think from training myself to fall asleep that way with yoga breathing (6 beats in, 10 out, etc.). Plus, the fact is that my nasal passages get completely blocked, and all the medicines and sprays I'm taking to help that aren't doing a fricking thing when I'm asleep. So the machine wants to force me to breathe through my nose, but my nose is plugged. So I try to breath through my mouth, but that doesn't really work well with CPAP.
I'm supposed to give it at least a few weeks, so... I'll keep playing with the settings and see what happens tonight.

Finished Generation Kill today... no new real shockers, there. I kept expecting it to be like the movies, I think, where everybody dies. Or at least ONE of the characters you know dies. But... none of the guys in the platoon died, and only a few got injured. More than a few went totally fucking batshit, but... Maybe the lessons are contained in the sort of dry mundanity of the routine of war. They engage, they move on. Things are all fucked up, the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing, the guys at the top are lying, stupid, and/or incompetent, and the little guys suffer. I don't know. Alexander Skarsgard was awesome though, as were all the actors, really. Just not my cup of tea, I guess.
I did laugh when the Iraqi townspeople asked for statues of W. to put on their street. Laughed in a bitter kind of way, considering the chaos we created there.
Anyhoo, so now I'm watching Being Human, and I've got to say, so far I like it! I'll report more on it later.
Woo! Sing it, baby!
