Navajo Rabbit...some bastard opened an account on a cryptocurrency website using my email address, and there's 'nothing they can do about it'.
I know it doesn't matter...but it doesn't feel good as somebody who has already been manipulated to hell by unscrupulous individuals. __________________ 'Somewhere up above the great divide Where the sky is wide, and the clouds are few A man can see his way clear to the light 'You have all the grace you need for today, and today is all that matters.' - Steve Austin |

Hugs, Lost, I'm sorry...I can't believe there's nothing they can do? I hope you can get it resolved. |

I'm sorry, Lost, it seems like there certainly SHOULD be something they can do about it. Not that I would know what, but dang! that sucks. I don't understand anything at all about this newfangled crypto stuff. |

R was helpful again today--she was talking some about Internal Family Systems, with the exile (like the child part) and the protectors, then the self. It helped me think about things differently. Also about the place I want to get to, in terms of self-love, so that I don't need to keep trying to get it from the outside (not that love from others isn't important, but it also can't fill a certain void). And finding meaning. And a bunch of other stuff that I'm still processing.
I may be able to see her for a session at the end of August, when Dr. T tends to go away for 5-7 days for a particular event, so it's good to think that we could continue a conversation then. Or I could potentially schedule another time with her sooner, though I need some time to process what we discussed, I think (plus I'll be away for most of a week in August with my family). And there's stuff going on with D that I wish I could talk to Dr. T about this week (as he knows all the background). It's hard because I'm just used to updating him so regularly. Over the weekend and earlier this week, I kept thinking, "Oh I can discuss that in our session," then remembering that's not until Monday, 7/31. Which I know isn't *that* far away. But it can feel like it when you're used to frequent contact. I'm halfway there, I guess? My goal is not to email him. |

I'm also hoping it is going/went okay NP. It's annoying that they don't seem to make different sized gowns.

Well, I got 3 out of the 4 MRIs done. It was pretty awful. The scrubs fit although not very well. I tried to just not think about how awful I looked in them. Got into the MRI room, they situated me and started to shove me into the tube and I freaked out. They pulled me out. They had said I would be in there like an hour and a half and I was like no f'in way I can stay in that tube that long. Had a bit of a panic attack, started apologizing to everyone, then started crying. How embarrassing. After a few minutes, we agreed to maybe just do two of the exams so I was reinserted back into the machine. This time I managed to keep it together and they started the exam. They were talking to me via headphones and I had a panic button if I needed something. After a bit, I told them I thought I could continue and do all of the exams, but they had changed the thing that goes around your head and it would have to be changed back to do the 4th one, so I may have to go back and get that one done at a later date. Felt very shaky afterwards and I'm glad to be back home.

Ive had a couple of mri's, one on my knee and one of my head, and all theyve ever done is open like some back door with no lights on so i had no idea where i was or if i was in a confined space. I think they asked me beforehand if i was claustrophobic and pretty sure i answered yes. I swear one time i thought they were shoving me out to the alley, thats how sketchy the door looked. But they fooled me!
I need my power back on! I have a bike headlamp to get around the apartment with, but they wont even start fixing it until this next round of thunderstorms comes thru. |

Oh I hope it comes on soon. I am guessing or at least hoping for you that Michigan isn't quite as hot as some other parts of the country right now. We're in a pattern right now we're 99 to 100° every day with a great deal of humidity so when electricity off it is dangerous. I'm pretty sure I would have to drive at least one of my dogs to a hotel because he would be in peril

Hugs, if wanted. I'm sorry it was such a difficult experience. Hopefully, they got what they needed from those MRIs and you won't have to do the 4th. Do you know when you'll get results? |

I've read the reports on My Chart. Nothing stood out as problematic in them, but I'm not a doctor so we'll see what the ENT has to say.

The expensive part of my recent body part replacement, in terms of what I had to pay, was the part of the open sided MRI that the insurance company wouldn't cover. It was worth it to me to do the open sided kind -which was still fairly claustrophobic

My therapist had one done recently on his hip to diagnose a labrum tear and he said he took a nap while they did it. I'm gonna have to inquire if they stuck him in head first or feet first. I will say the noises didn't bother me and were a little trippy at times.

I don't remember music or anything much about the 2 I had in the hospital last month; then again I was out of my mind with pain for both of them so... well, I do remember I went in the tube thingy feet first.

Yay, my power came back two hours ago, but i was so enthralled in my Denali book that i missed it. In 1967 a 24 yr old physics grad student led an expedition up mt mckinley. He had 8 people on his team, another team of 3 joined them, but these 3 guys were all supermen, while the original group was a bunch of nerds and weirdos. Summit day, the leader summits with the supermen, leaving the orig group to go up the next day with his co-leader. Yeah right. SNOFU. So i keep turning the pages - this is not the first account ive read of the expedition, but it is the first written by this so-called leader - anyway im turning pages waiting for him to take responsibility. So i kept kool reading this book and i have a little battery-operated fan. Plus my bike headlamp to guide me to the bathroom, i survived the 48 hr blackout Last edited by unaluna; Jul 28, 2023 at 09:53 PM.. |
