Done Since 2021-08-22

On the whole probably not a bad week. I've started trying to both exercise and make music a little more regularly. Having considerably more consistency with the exercise than the music, which is... strange?

I had an appointment Friday with Dr. Chopra, who had been our doctor during most of the five years Colleen and I were living in Seattle. So I was able to tell her about Colleen's death when she asked how Colleen was doing. Unfortunately she's only taking returning patients, and apparently a five-year gap is too long to be considered "returning". We'll see. Got a referral for PT, and some stuff for my ongoing blepharitis.

I never did get my medical records (from WhidbeyHealth) merged into UW's system, so as a result I omitted a couple of things - the prescriptions for meloxicam and tizanidine, and the details of the CAT scan of my hips. Hopefully that won't be too much of a problem. I'll send the missing information directly sometime this week via their message system, and hand-carry print-outs to my lab appointment on Wednesday. The whole thing is totally stupid -- the records are in a standard XML-based format, but there doesn't seem to be any of getting that from one system to the other. Blarg.

I also managed to get a little done on $writing-gig-2, though not as much as I'd wanted to; I may get it finished in the next couple of days. And I unpacked the air conditioner I'd gotten for the studio apartment; it will actually get used this fall and winter because it also heats.
