I got the MRI done. They were looking to see if there was anything serious about a pinched nerve in my shoulder. Being in the machine in the position I was laying provoked the pain and numbness. That might work out in my favor though as the diagnostic people can see the issue very clearly. Still, it was a long and painful 30 minutes!
My boss called to offer me some extra hours. We talked, and I have an extra hour added to my shifts this week. I can work with that!
Talked with my dad today and he was in... typical form. His entitlement made me laugh out loud. I gave him and my mom a small Thermos with some of my Japanese ramen to try. They enjoyed it, but my dad apparently had trouble cleaning the Thermos. So, because he had trouble cleaning it, I needed to stop using it. For anything. Obviously, that isn't going to happen, but wow, the entitlement! I'm not hurt by this, or even angry. I'm just sadly amused. I do wonder if he has the capacity for self-reflection, because this certainly doesn't paint the picture of such a man.
Apart from that, pretty lazy day for today too! A little house cleaning, taking the garbage to the curb and just lazing about! Back into it tomorrow though!
