in continuing news about my brain

[lunabee34]

1. Insurance approved three of the four MRIs (brain, cervical spine, thoracic spine) and rejected the lumbar spine. I'm having the three on Saturday night at 6:45. I meet with the neurologist on Tuesday and at that point he will decide if the lumbar one is necessary. He should have the results of all the tests at that point, so on Tuesday, I should know *something*.

2. Earlier this week, I had a cognitive test (not connected to the cap o'goo, thankfully). I think I did really well on it except for the part where I was asked to memorize a screen of pictures and then identify them later. Also, the part with ever-increasingly quick math problems. *shudders*

3. So, when my MRIs were canceled last week, I made a retail therapy purchase from JetPens that arrived a couple days ago. Forthcoming review post. *pets all my new pens*

4. This journal has been pretty much unremittingly about my brain lately LOL, so let's inject something fannish. Tell me about your latest fannish interest, accomplishment, WTF moment, whatever. *chin hands*

lol I'd fail the first problem.

We've started watching The Expanse again, and I'm enjoying it so much! I think we stopped after the first season when it switched networks (maybe, I don't remember why we stopped), so we have like 6 seasons to look forward to!

I was fine with two number problems. Three number problems were a bust. LOL

I have heard such good things about The Expanse. If I ever start watching TV reliably again, it is going on my list.

It's a fun show! And so far the quality of it is really high. One of the characters is very quickly climbing my list of Most Badass Characters Ever.

Amos? Or Bobbie? :D

Chrisjen! :D

[kore]

OMFG yes! She is like an empress.

Just for a different kind of badass, I'm going to guess Chrisjen.

[elfin]

Yesssssss!

Expanse is SO GOOD, I highly recommend it. The first season often kinda sucks and the third season badly stumbled, but a lot of it is amazing.

I so second The Expanse. That is an amazing show.
