    I'm hoping this means that they're getting to the root of things rather than just going by rote.

    *wince* Still not exactly a trip to the beach. But I am glad you are hanging in there. Tell Mrs. Prof that we have both of you in our thoughts and that we hope things will turn around soon.

    Very much appreciated. However, since that last post, things have become weirder with my back. I got lucky and got an appointment just after noon today with my spine doctor. He wrote me out a prescription for enough hydrocodone (3x daily) to tide me over until the scheduled May 16th procedure date. However, that date might not matter anymore. The doctor was confused by what I said the nurse had told me would happen on the 16th. He says my MRI and diagnostic shot data doesn't jibe with a simple single-cause issue on my right side. So, he's ordered an electromyogram to be performed this Friday at the doctor's office and a CT myelogram to be performed at the hospital (the hospital with call and schedule, hopefully tomorrow). After all of that, I'm supposed to follow up with a different doctor at the practice who specializes in spinal surgery. That doctor will determine if I get a major epidural cortisone/anesthetic injection through my tailbone into my spinal cord, or if some kind of back surgery will be required. In one day, I've gone from a simple cortisone injection to a possible major epidural or even spinal surgery. This is going the wrong farking direction. There is one upside, however—the doctor was more than happy to let me continue taking the Topamax, since it's helped me lose almost 20 pounds since I started taking it.

    Story Monday April 17, 2017

    First "this comic" shows Diane being a gossip. Like everybody else. It illustrates pettiness but not outright ill-will. Not by high school standards. Kids, even high school kids, can be vicious creatures. Second "this comic" shows Diane making doe-eyes and a guy who is pulling money out of his wallet. If she isn't making those eyes for the guy with the wallet, the next best explanation for me is Diane's hero-worship of Nanase. She might be envious of how close and casual Justin's relationship is to Nanase and wanting that for herself. You can make these comics fit a pattern of actual dislike but I'd like more solid evidence before I sign on, and a better answer to refuting evidence. This comic shows Diane barely aware of Justin beyond "he's the gay guy". Her focus is on Nanase. Diane's "Defective male companion" line next strip works just fine as a reference to Justin's gayness without reading any deep or longstanding animosity into it.

    The pain itself is pulling almost a full LI at the moment. I'm going through Tramadol at the label dosage (1-2 every 4-6 hrs) instead of one twice a day (chronic pain management dosage). That's taking the razor edge off, but not for long. I'm going to need something stronger than Tramadol, which means Mrs. Prof is probably going to have to drive me out to Rockwall so that I can get a paper prescription from the doctor, if he'll prescribe hydrocodone or stronger.

    Much rain in the D/FW area today. Local flash flooding. Someone posted a Facebook video of a floating traffic cone that was moving faster than traffic was.

    Going in a circle is also a option. Of course that tends to be a bit messy and sends you to Oz sometimes.
