Sep. 10th, 2015 08:10 pmHaving gone to PT appointments twice a week for the past month, and having faithfully done my home exercises to no effect whatsoever, I go get my shoulder MRIed next Thursday (at 8:30 PM; who knew MRI people are nocturnal?). What I really want is the football players' health plan, in which you get hurt on Sunday, get X-rayed instantly in the locker room and get MRIed on Tuesday, and THEN go to PT for ages. But I'm not a football player, so one or the other shoulder has been sore for seven months now. I'm running out of patience, just a bit. And I'm trying to remind myself that eating is not going to work as a remedy.
My boss went out for lunch somewhere and called me afterward, and the first thing she said was "This is going to sound strange, but have you got $10 in cash?" The cab wasn't taking credit cards, which is how she pays for everything. So for the first time in my life, I went and bailed my boss out of a cab.
Speaking of lunch, given an 8:30 PM MRI appointment up the street from work, and given that an MRI involves being stuck in a smallish space that makes loudish noises for half an hour or so, I think maybe this calls for beer with dinner, somewhere Eastern Standard-ish. Unless the Red Sox are in town, in which case it still calls for beer, but it calls for it somewhere Regal Beagle-ish.
Speaking of the Red Sox, I'm recording the football game. I'll watch it tomorrow when I might have a brain again. For sure I don't have one now; I spent too much of yesterday juggling the LOHPC manual, the faculty retreat, the Curriculum Committee and the basic science course directors meeting planning. And then I went and took minutes at the chorus committee meeting. I spent too much of today on a mind-numbing data conversion project that turned a perfectly legible spreadsheet into a 115-column monstrosity. Apparently the original version wasn't legible to the statistical analysis software. After I redesigned the whole thing, I had to re-enter all the data. Oh, and add the latest round of data. Oh, and convert all the data from letters to numbers. At least that was easy; that's what Find/Replace All is for. So anyway, that's why I'm recording the football game.
At least tomorrow is Friday. And all I have for extracurricular activities next week is the MRI and the first chorus rehearsal. I think I can remember that much...I hope.
