RLS/ Restless Legs Syndrome
Today I did a lot of computer stuff and didn’t have much time to think about anything interesting. Because setting up computers to work well is not very interesting in my book. It involves trying to figure out why the computer which is supposedly a perfectly rational being of some sort acts in such perverse fashions. It’s almost as if it was. . . . .human!
And I was almost like Henry VIII. Drop it out the window and go shopping for a new one. But that wouldn’t be a wise move and Beth would probably start thinking I was getting too near The Edge.
Well I have news for her pretty self. It won’t be computers that send me there. It will be Restless Legs Syndrome. Ten percent of the population have this scourge? I doubt it. Because that would mean that at least two percent of the population are jumping out of windows every night.
And unless someone doesn’t think that is a newsworthy event we can safely say no! That’s not happening.
But I do have a new idea in my ongoing quest to find ways to outsmart Mr. R. Legs Syndrome. I am going to have a stand next to my desk and put a wireless keyboard on it. Then when the RLS starts up I can stand up and type away without bringing this insidious stuff into play. One of the reasons I started blogging was to share my experience and (hopefully) some helpful tips about dealing with RLS since so many people have or will have it.
I need to work on my new “seating” arrangement in the morning. Because right now I cannot even continue this post.
Night. Night.
