It went well, and I'm home, sore, medicated, surrounded by pillows, and being pampered by my loving family and girlfriend.

They took over 1,000 grams of tissue! That's a lot! My chest feels so much lighter. I'm eager to see the results, but at the same time, I have no desire to undo the compression bra they put on me. It feels like the only thing holding my torso together!

My sleep is all messed up because I have to take pain meds every 3 hours... And because sleeping elevated on my back is not how I normally sleep. Sadly, I won't be back to sleeping on my side for months, most likely, so I'm going to have to get used to sleeping on my back. Ah well -- worth it!!

It's currently 3:30 am and I'm going to try to doze again ....

... while also thinking of 3 more fanfics to write between now and the 25th. I really do want to make that dream of hitting 100 works by that date come true!

As I age and my sleep cycle naturally turns into that of an old person, I'm finding I really enjoy the early morning hours. This morning I woke up for the first time around 4:30, and was able to doze until 5:30, when I propped myself up on my pillows and grabbed my laptop and knocked out 1,700 good words. I went back to sleep around 7 and finally got up for the day at 8:30.

This situation would have horrified younger me, who treasured sleep, especially morning sleep, above all else. But it's what my body is doing now, so I'm going to try to make the most of it.
