At home today, and listening to the wood chipper grinding up the last of two trees I let Austin Energy take out for me—one because it was dead and starting to collapse into a 68K distribution line, and another because it was (a) invading the distribution line and (b) dying back from the top due to the drought. I made them leave the living part of that tree (a black walnut) to see whether it can recover, although I have my doubts with at least one more year of drought predicted, and maybe as much as another decade of low rainfall.
The sleep study went better than I expected. I actually did get to sleep about eleven and stayed that way until they woke me at six, then bathed—the center has a full bath, so you can wash off all the conductant before you leave—and came home, where I went on to sleep much of the rest of the day. My follow-up appointment isn’t until late in November, so I still don’t know whether they found anything worth the telling.
