An illustrative story

[serinde]

Me: *zzzt* *snork* . o O ( goddammit, 7am, I had better get up )
audiovile: *zzzzt* *snork*
Me: *poke* Um, Steve, shouldn't you be up?
Him: I'm working from home today. I'm exhausted and I barely slept.
Me: I, and my own exhaustion from being unable to fall asleep due to your snoring, beg to differ.
Him: ... really?

Formerly, Steve only really snored when he had a cold or a severe allergy attack. However, in the past oh, 4-6 months, it's pretty much every night; and not just some heavy breathin', but the kind of loud snerking honks that make me think hardly any air is getting into his system. And this in spite of the fact that he's been on Allegra since March or so (which he says is making a difference for him during the day, at least). Is this that sleep apnea thing of which dire tales tell? I'm getting somewhat worried, not to mention tired of my choices of a) tossing & turning half the night with a pillow over my head or b) crawling into a bed at the top of the house...WHERE I CAN STILL HEAR HIM.

Conversation with snore boy reveals that he hasn't been taking ANY of the allergy medication.

Snuh? He told me last week he was taking the Allegra again.
