The Monkey Posted February 20, 2009 Report Posted February 20, 2009 Went to the doctor for the headache. He didn't seem too worried, but saw a "little swelling behind [my] eyes," (??) so he sent me for an MRI. His initial diagnosis is migraine, but I call back tomorrow morning. The MRI tech (forgive me if that is not what they are called) was very good and obviously had experienced his share of freak-outs. But I've had several MRIs, and with constant putting out fires at work and a 2 1/2 year old at home, 25 minutes in the MRI machine was kind of relaxing.
Dusty Chalk Posted February 20, 2009 Report Posted February 20, 2009 Every time I get an MRI, I think of the opening of Talk Talk's "The Rainbow" from Spirit of Eden. And vice versa.
Aura Posted February 20, 2009 Report Posted February 20, 2009 Been sick as hell the last few days, have a fever and migraine that is making me dizzy; I think both of these are being caused by strep throat which is making swallowing even my own saliva a tedious and painful process. :/
Salt Peanuts Posted February 21, 2009 Report Posted February 21, 2009 Technically yesterday, but went to work to find two of my students deathly ill, along with two of my teachers who are still under the weather. Hopefully, I won't get it this time around. After work, met up with a photographer and decided on using the guy for our wedding.
tyrion Posted February 21, 2009 Report Posted February 21, 2009 Got up, walked the dogs, showered, made coffee, turned on the music, and fed the geckos.
tyrion Posted February 21, 2009 Report Posted February 21, 2009 no waffles? The geckos prefer meal worms. I just fed the bearded dragon superworms. Nope, no waffles for any of us. I do see a bowl of Special K cereal in my immediate future.

tyrion Posted February 21, 2009 Report Posted February 21, 2009 Special K is king of breakfast. My wife buys the one with the extra protein, I think and it's not bad. It took a while to get used to the fact that it wasn't almost all sugar like most of the cereals I would eat.
Chekhonte Posted February 21, 2009 Report Posted February 21, 2009 i'm going to seattle today to see the Lucy skeleton. I'm really excited.
swt61 Posted February 21, 2009 Report Posted February 21, 2009 ^ Shit! What happened? Did Charlie Brown kill her?
Chekhonte Posted February 21, 2009 Report Posted February 21, 2009 he saw a Jeffery Dahlmer documentary and tried to make a sex zombie out of her but it didn't work.
Dusty Chalk Posted February 21, 2009 Report Posted February 21, 2009 My favorite cereal is Nature's Path Optimum something. Started consolidating my podcast subscriptions onto my home computer (need to clear up the ones at work). Fed the cat.
tyrion Posted February 21, 2009 Report Posted February 21, 2009 I'm off to do a little record shopping.
The Monkey Posted February 21, 2009 Report Posted February 21, 2009 Got up. Had coffee & bagel. Sent Mrs Monkey and the little one to a birthday party. Threw in some laundry. Still have headache. MRI revealed some possible slight swelling of an area near pituitary. Sounds scary as all hell, but doctor (whom I trust despite his slight dickishness) is not worried at all even if it is the case. Says meds will take care of it quickly. Need another MRI, though, before diagnosis can be made. Talking to doctors makes me a better lawyer. Reminds me to take the time to explain shit to clients even when I think things are perfectly obvious and clear.
Dreadhead Posted February 21, 2009 Report Posted February 21, 2009 work..... tomorrow too... damn deadlines
Torpedo Posted February 21, 2009 Report Posted February 21, 2009 Applied some mods to the T30 pads, then went to in-laws for lunch, spent the afternoon there... nice meal indeed my mom in law is a good cook. Gonna see if the mods improve long term comfort and make any changes in sound.
aardvark baguette Posted February 21, 2009 Report Posted February 21, 2009 Managed to cram a nice leather chair into my new bedroom/place. Not without some effort at the doorways.
tyrion Posted February 21, 2009 Report Posted February 21, 2009 Sat through CWP course. Now I'm waiting for HighLife and then getting some sushi.
The Monkey Posted February 21, 2009 Report Posted February 21, 2009 Sat through CWP course. Concealed Weapons Permit?
MoonShine Posted February 21, 2009 Report Posted February 21, 2009 Got up and finished installing Windows 7 on my 6-7yr old Dell Inspiron 8100 PIII 1.13GH w/ only 512 ram. Had a little trouble with the audio driver because I forgot that there is a certain order that the drivers must be installed but got it worked out. Actually runs pretty good. No Aero but I don't care. Installed OpenOffice.org, Diskeeper Pro Premium 2009, MP3Tag, Zune Software, uTorrent, Firefox and called it good. Before I only had about 3.5GB free on the little 20GB hard drive, now I have over 11GB free.
tyrion Posted February 22, 2009 Report Posted February 22, 2009 Concealed Weapons Permit? Yes sir. I want to be prepared when the revolution starts.
boomana Posted February 22, 2009 Report Posted February 22, 2009 Yay, Mike! I can come your way tomorrow if you want to go shooting.
tyrion Posted February 22, 2009 Report Posted February 22, 2009 Yay, Mike! I can come your way tomorrow if you want to go shooting. Now you show up. It will depend on how fast I can get my few errands my wife left for me to do. Let me know when you are available.
aardvark baguette Posted February 22, 2009 Report Posted February 22, 2009 Yes sir. I want to be prepared when the revolution starts. Given your avatar, I find this curious.
