Sometimes I don't sleep well, so I've done a couple of doctor-prescribed sleep studies. The first one was an overnight monitoring of my body's physical and mental activity during sleep, which included lots of wires glued to my head and a sensor stuck in my nose. I got a bad night's sleep the night before the study, so I actually ended up sleeping like a baby despite all the wires and sensors. This gave the doctors no data whatsoever, so they prescribed a second phase of testing. I just did this second phase the other day, which consisted of monitoring my brain activity during daytime napping. So essentially I sat around a room all day, reading books and watching movies, and every two hours I had to try to take a nap. No results yet, but that was easily the best sick day ever. #health
