Update on health issues, for those concerned ( Read more... )

Today is my second day of being unemployed before I start a 9-week course at the college in a few weeks. I'm really starting to get sick of everyone saying how wonderful it must be, like they forget I'm completely housebound and think cabin fever is a vacation ( Read more... )

So, my MRI today sucked. Sucked bad.

Things I knew going in:

I'd be in a fully enclosed space. It's ok. I'm fine with confined spaces.
