the nerve test was very surreal. basically, they just sat there and gave me electrical shocks to my hands/wrists/elbows for 20 minutes. and i thanked them when i left! how strange that we thank doctor-y people for toturing us, when really i wanted to deck her afterwards, if i could get my hands to cooperate....

i hate web based email. its just an annoying way to interface with email.

ahhhhhhhh, good news. such a relief to have that settled. now i have to find a school to work in, but there are lots around here.

tomorrow i visit the neurologist to get a nerve test done on my wrists. surgery is looming--i may be leaving the land of the primates for a few days. thank god for interns at work!

yah so if the interview went so great why haven't i heard from them? i had a brief email exchange about scheduling follow-up interviews with potential mentor teachers. i think this is in the works, which means i'm in, but they haven't actually *said* i'm in, which i guess i need to see in print. i'm not good at the limbo parts of life. i'm very much a "J" on the meyer's-briggs.

the car is fantastic. i'm still not sure if i like knitting--some days i want to break the needles or stab someone with them. it is portable. actually, at this point, that's its only asset.

going to portland, or next week to see the family. probably will stress me out, but that's what family is for!
