Sedatives don't really play nicely with an already pretty broken nervous system. I think that might be another reason I got into computer, people don't think it's quite so strange when a programmer stays up all night. [and is also probably part of why she fell in love with someone who thought coffee was a food group.

She raises a brow at that; just because she's known him for a year doesn't mean she can always follow his logic. She's pretty glad she often can't, honestly. There's only so much she wants to change]
Ah, if you say so. I do wonder if this [she taps her temple without conciously realizing it] Has something to do with it though. And not just because I didn't have all that baggage when we were in there. I think this is the first time that being able to do my work without my hands hasn't felt like it was...worse than the way everyone else did it.

[that's...something she doesn't like admittitng out loud, that she often thought that using voice-to-text and cameras that followed her eye movements instead of using a mouse were less than. It's not a very progressive feminist thing to think about herself, but it's the truth]
