Tom’s MRI is now complete and it went as expected. We still don’t expect them to find anything wrong. He just wants to get the whole thing over with. He wants to either find out what it is, or not find out what it is, but get a hearing aid to help with the distortion. He should find out the MRI results on the 11th, though, when he sees our ENT, if not sooner.

Tomorrow he’ll call and see if he can get in to see my PCP sometime soon enough. I sort of wish he had stopped by to see if he could get in like he said he thought of doing because he was in the same building, just on the other side. She’s a little bit of a drive but the parking lot is easy to get in and out of and there are always plenty of spaces. The place that’s closer which is where the lab is can be a nightmare for parking.

Nothing’s going to be the nightmare that seeing Dr. O will be. 3:15 really means about 4:00 for her, traffic will be a nightmare, and we’ll have to pay for valet parking.

I’ve had more burning and itching in the crotch and the pits so I took a Zyrtec earlier and it knocked me out for a nap. Dr. O is far enough away that I don’t have to worry about my schedule right now, though. I’m still a bit groggy even though I made a second cup of coffee when I got up.

I don’t think it’s because I stopped the ACV shots a few days ago that’s got it worse but we’ll see. It didn’t seem to be affecting my weight after all and it’s probably not going to do anything for my cholesterol, but if I don’t resume the shots sooner, I’ll definitely start back up a month or so before my December labs.

There were tons of fireworks last night so hopefully, they got that out of their system until New Year’s. I didn’t mind because it was the scheduled holiday, but when they do it for a whole week in advance it gets to me. The regular pop-pop-pop gets annoying. Sort of like hunting season in Maricopa did.

Began watching The Sinner on Netflix and amazingly, it’s in the US so they have American accents and there doesn’t seem to be any race or religion in the plot. Maybe a little God/religion but none of the race shit I’ve been sick of hearing about for ages now. It’s always great when I can catch a break from race or politics because so much of the same thing really gets old fast no matter what it is.

Anyway, It’s just a mystery about a seemingly normal wife and mother who ups and stabs a man to death in a fit of rage on a public beach.

My new magnetic rainbow duster came today and it definitely makes dusting go faster even if it can’t quite get where the Swiffer wand can get. I have to use that for the high places.

I’ve also got a new toe ring on the way because while my other one was pretty and fit well, it was too “scratchy.” The part where the magenta crystal gems are scratch my big toe.
