lunabee341. 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*

Date: 2021-04-01 04:18 pm (UTC)Fannishly I'm in a fallow period, still working on a big piece I love with Natasha, but not fired up about the fandom except enjoying a lot of Sam Wilson on my tightly curated tumblr dash. Been watching What We Do in the Shadows, which is great fun, but I'm having less luck finding fic for Nadja. Started watching The Great, this playful costume drama AU of Catherine the Great, and I'm having meta thoughts about how they're utilizing the sex scenes for character dev and not just a plot point bucket to hold titillation, but I want to give it more eps, because I have a very low tolerance for rape content, and I don't yet trust it.
