Last Friday, I had a sleep study. It wasn't my first sleep study, but in this particular study, I had to sleep for fifteen minutes out of every two hours. At first I was bummed about missing a day of work for a sleep study, but then I realized – I was going to have a whole day to do – whatever – I – wanted. Woah! It was pretty awesome. I got a lot of writing done. For part of the day, I had the television on in the background. One of the segments I saw was Mr. Food, who was preparing a pie that looked magnificently delicious. I got the ingredients to make it for my family dinner this Sunday. I'll have to let you know how it goes.
