summer semester has begun!
May. 25th, 2022 07:43 am1. I got wonderful postcards from ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
oracne and misbegotten! Thank you!
2. MRI scheduled for tonight at 8:30. It is wonderful that this facility is open after normal business hours and on the weekends, making it easy for people who can't take off work to schedule imaging. But, lordy, do I not want to drive an hour away in the dark to get this test done. LOL *cross your fingers for me*
Biopsy consult scheduled for the 31st. Who knows when the actual biospy will occur. No one is moving with any alacrity. I am annoyed (but let's be real; this is indeed my default state LOL).
Still haven't gotten Emma's lumbar puncture scheduled. Cymbalta seems to be having minimal effect on her pain levels. :( Back to the meds drawing board for her, I think.
3. Today is Fiona's last day of school! She won eleventy billion awards at Awards Day, including several state awards (for math and for writing; her entry to the RESA Writing Contest was a kickass poem about an owl). She was also the Outstanding Third Grade Musician. *preens in the reflected glory*
4. Peacemaker is a delightful show that you all should watch. It has many things going for it: it is short (this may actually be the #1 selling point for me), it has a diverse cast (people of color, women, queer characters), it manages to be really endearing and heartwarming. I mean, I don't understand how the show manages this last exactly; it's some kind of magic (okay, it's really excellent writing and a truly stellar cast). The characters are mostly terrible people, and the show deals with some super heavy themes, and it's incredibly violent, and yet I cried more times than I would care to admit (I care to admit no times), I am charmed by all the terrible people (except the villains, obviously--caveat, Todd the Wraith has a special place in my heart always), and this show is just damn awesome. John Cena is a fucking amazing actor, and I never thought I would be saying that, but damn. Also Danielle Brooks. And Eagley. :)
5. So many books!
( Matrix (Groff), Victorian short stories, The Crime in Mind (Rodensky), Embracing Refuge (Janssen) )
