Apr. 2nd, 2016 03:44 pmThe knee MRI went okay. I don’t know when we’ll hear what the results are. 7:00 p.m. on Friday is well after all of the senior doctors have gone home for the weekend, so I don’t really expect to hear until Monday. I didn’t get the impression that the two technicians were at all worried by what they saw, but who knows?
We went to the IHOP after the MRI. Scott and I had been trying to come up with some that Cordelia would like and consider a reward. She rejected book shopping as too hard to do on crutches, and she was decidedly meh on ice cream or frozen yogurt.
Scott had to go to bed as soon as we got home because there was a possibility he’d have to go in early for work. He didn’t end up having to, but he’d have been going in on about four hours of sleep if he had. Cordelia was pretty tired, so I got her ready for bed after Scott went to bed. I didn’t sleep for quite a while because I started having reflux problems as soon as I started to fall asleep. I couldn’t come out into the living room to use my laptop because of Cordelia, so I read LJ and DW on my cell phone. I saw several things that I wanted to comment on, but the phone isn’t good for that because it starts putting what I type underneath the text already displayed on the screen. Also, I’m still tired enough and stressed enough that I’m apt to open up a comment window and then stare at it blankly for ten minutes before I close it. I’m reading everything, though.
I’m trying to get myself to focus enough to write. I set a 15000 word goal for the month with Camp NaNo, and I’m still at zero words total. I’m not worried yet, but I don’t want to ignore the commitment.
I hacked a dozen or so new to me portals (and a lot of ones I’d done before) while we were driving around last night. The system was kind of slow, so sometimes I didn’t see a portal on my phone until after we’d gone past it. I also had a lot of hacks that resulted in no items acquired. Scott, while waiting for me and Cordelia to emerge after the MRI, ended up hacking some portals at Mott to the point that they shut down and wouldn’t let him hack them any more. I was able to hack them later, so we’re assuming that they were gone just for him.
I tried to get the local bus company’s website to tell me what would be involved in taking the city bus to the various high schools that Cordelia’s interested in, but I couldn’t get the ride planner feature to work right. She’s only in seventh grade, so it’s not like this is urgent, but it would be a really bad thing if I needed to plan a right now trip to somewhere. I suppose I’d have to call them and ask for information. Not something I’m eager to do.
