So they waited until now to try and get my MRI approved (it's in 2 days) and they can't in spite of me giving them all the information weeks ago. 'We can't find your doctor.' 'That's because the clinic is in Pittsburgh.' 'Oooooh.' 'I TOLD you this.' 'I don't know who you talked to but there is no record.' 'i gave you everything including the diagnostic codes.' 'Oh we have the codes.' 'So I DID talk to you.' 'I guess but we can't verify your doctor, Carolyn Christiansen.' 'That's because his name is GREGORY! How could you mess up that bad?' She didn't know. If I can't get my MRI I'm removing a head from someone's shoulder.

I forgot to mention coming home last night that it didn't rain at all. So I turn off the highway onto the windy curvy shortcut with no edge lines and flooding issues. I'm not 500 yards into it and the sky lets go. I can't see. What I can see is the wind whipping so much sideways rain that it looks like I'm on the lake, cutting through wakes. The winds shook the shaky shake all night long.

And today I tore off half my thumb nail (I sealed it back down) on the podium in class. I tried to turn it into a teachable moment since blood clotting is on tomorrow's test (which should have been yesterday). they just stared blankly. Betting this will suck.

And just for fun baby elephants trying to learn to use their trunks.

and something I’d like to see the next time I’m in Pittsburgh
