my tests came back “inconclusive”, which either means i moved during the CT scan (unlikely, i’ve had a heap) or it means they didn’t get what they were looking for. the doc wants me to get a spinal tap. i basically told him to go to hell. if there was something going on, i assume it would have been visible, given the size of my C/V system. i’m not looking back on this one, unless i have some sort of future complication, in which case i’ll be angry, or dead.

in other news, last night i saw the littlest professor, the new son of & . he is amazing. i tried to fix ‘s video card woes, but the best i could do was skip him past the prosaic parts of dell support and get him a new card RMA. hopefully, that will solve his problems. ‘s parents are in town, it was good to see them too. i can’t say enough about how wonderful the littlest professor was, though has taken to calling him Miggs, which creeped me right the fuck out. she did not have the same frame of reference with that name i did though, so i just racked it up to my wierdness which made that connection uncomfortable.

i got the littlest professor off to a good start last night – a tradition i hope & don’t see as innapporpiate or a pain in the ass. when a new baby comes along, but the best bottle of single malt available (and affordable), and give it to the parents to keep in trust for the baby. the tradition goes, everyone shares it at the kid’s wedding, or funeral. i think it might be adapted for “21’st birthday”, but who knows? even if it is a future 21ist birthday gift from a long-ago past, it will be a 42 year-old bottle of Glenlivet by the time it hits someone’s lips.

i’m plowed under at work, and have people crawling out of the trees with side work, which is good, because i want to save loot. i just gotta focus on keeping my nose above water. this weekend A. and i are finishing the apartment, one way or the other. this means another trip to Ikea, but beggars (especially beggars with fucking store credit) can’t be choosers.

what is everyone else doing this weekend? any shenannigans i should know about?

edit: it is pretty sad to me that the first two pages of google image searches on the word “inconclusive” are pics of heath ledger.
