WisCon!

[mamagotcha]

So who's going to WisCon this year?

I turned in a bunch of ideas for sessions, but I don't know if I'll actually be working on any of 'em. I may or may not be working on ConCom this year... if I do, it'll probably be the newsletter again (or some similar at-con publications effort).

I don't have a room yet... anyone need a nice, quiet roommate? No snoring, guaranteed!

My mother passed away four days after I got back from last year's WisCon, and while I feel the great enthusiasm and joy I absorbed there really bouyed me through the next unexpectedly difficult months (hell, the next three months!), I never got back on track to writing like I'd hoped to.

Right now I'm looking to change that. Write now!

So... who's in?

No snoring? You? Man, that robot mask machine must be seriously something...

Erm, no snoring? Are you sure? :-)

I've got a CPAP, and it's change me from a loud snorer to silent. There's a very slight hiss from the machine itself, but unless you're within a few feet of it, you really can't hear it.

You've got one too? Which kind of mask do you have? I've currently got the nose one, that makes me look like Darth Piggy, but it works a lot better than the nose/mouth one I had before.

I had a broken nose when I got mine, so I have this one with just two nozzle-thingies that sit under the nostrils. I may be able to find it online:

oh, cool. my mom went to mayo and they mentioned sleep apnea, but the last time she had a sleep study, the mask made her claustrophobic. but this one might not.

They tried six or eight masks on me. They're highly motivated to get you one that is comfortable.

Oooh, very snazzy! Thank you!

I can vouch she does not snore if the mask is fitting well.
