Sleep, perchance to dream.
12 years ago
I've always been a loud snorer and I've always had trouble getting a restful night's sleep. Turns out I likely have Sleep Apnea. I'm scheduled for a sleep study to confirm this and to find the proper treatment option for me. Problem is, I've got crappy health insurance and I'm looking at some $2000 in medical bills I'll need to pay. In addition, my job's cutting back my hours but not enough where I could easily pick up a second one. We're already getting by on the skin of our teeth as it were and while it may be more responsible to wait for the study until we can pay off a few bills, I find myself staring down the barrel of three or more months of shitty coffee, nearly passing out at work and sleeping 4+ hours of tossing and turning on my days off to just get close to normal and honestly, I want to cry. It's stupid just how much an effect sleep can have on someone and how much genetics can screw you over. The treatment's out there but it's expensive and requires a prescription, just like my asthma medicine. I want desperately to get this dealt with. I want to feel like I can get a full nights sleep. I'm tired of being tired all the time.
I didn't just come here to vent though. I'd like to ask your help. I've got no right to it considering I post about as frequently as a geological epoch but when you're out of options, you do what you can. I'm offering pay what you will stories. I'll take pocket lint, old arcade tokens, cursed amulets or just your frequent posting about how you got this awesome story from some lizard guy over the internet. I'd rather be writing something than sitting here and dwelling on what may be a few more months of existing somewhere between comatose and drugged-up. Any money will go towards bills, even if it's only tree fiddy. This is your chance to abuse my one major salable talent for pennies on the dollar.*
Drop me a note, I'll get back to you ASAP.
*Some restrictions apply. I'm not writing 75000 word novels for pocket change. I also reserve the right to decline fetishes I deem outside my comfort zone, though I promise to do so politely considering I've got some wacky ones of my own. All stories will be written in the order they are taken and I'll keep the turnaround time short. All stories commissioned are yours to fold, spindle or mutilate as long as you don't say you wrote it yourself and use it to springboard your literary career. Or, if you do, I'm going to need a decent amount of hush money to keep things on the DL.
