I’m watching 48 Hours now on Paramount, and one of the episodes is about a boy who killed his twin sister while sleepwalking. I’ve heard of other sleepwalking murder cases, but I’m not buying it. It takes conscious thought to carry out such precise actions. I think it’s just a bullshit cover, just like the multiple personality thing where people want to act out and claim it was their “other” personality that did whatever evil deed it supposedly did, which they conveniently can’t remember.
Last night I had a very productive writing night and wrote over 3500 words. Didn’t sleep well, so I’m not going to do much writing tonight. My sleep got broken up again with an hour and a half break in between. Really thinking more and more that that much is on the estrogen. I’m definitely a little hypo now because I’ve been cold and the scale is up a couple pounds. I think when I have too much levo, it causes me to wake up a lot, but the breaks in the middle of my sleep seem like they’re on the estrogen, and I did use it the day before, too. I’ll back off for a week and see what happens. Besides, I’d rather burn a little than deal with this shit.
The best news is that I haven’t had any breathing issues or leaks. The pressure setting is on 8, but I want to wait until after my appointments before I raise it some more, just in case there are any issues.
I can’t wait to get started on The Hospital Diaries, but I’m going to have to consult with AI on a few things. The premise is that the suspect doesn’t actually know she’s a suspect. I just need to figure out what her specific crime is. It has to be something serious, as she’s under constant surveillance in the hospital, even though they’re telling her it’s just to keep her “safe.” I might use some characters from Them. I’m also thinking of a high-intensity prologue showing her escape, with the rest of the story focusing on the diaries. For the epilogue, I’m envisioning an aftermath where she taunts the authorities who are unable to find her.
My brilliant husband got a brilliant idea! He said it seems crazy at first, but when you think about it, it is an option. We could get a small, skinny refrigerator for a little over $200. It’d be 22” wide, so there would be room to put a narrow cabinet next to it (the opening is 36”, so the cabinet could be up to 14” wide). I picked out a cabinet on Amazon that’s a foot wide for under $100 (it wouldn’t hold much, but every little bit helps). The refrigerator also wouldn’t stick out in front of the cabinet like this one does, and we think that would look better. It is kind of short, 55”, but that would make it easier to put things on top. A smaller refrigerator would work for us because we get small deliveries twice a week and never have a lot in the refrigerator or freezer.
We would need to hire someone to haul the old one away. Even with that, he thinks we could replace the refrigerator and hire someone to install the bathroom floor and reset the toilet for less than the cost of a side-by-side refrigerator. We would lose the water dispenser, but we would probably have the money to install a filter on the sink.
