ysobel- trying a new nighttime headphone setup with slightly less probability of the earbuds falling out, by virtue of the fact that there are no earbuds. (RunPhones; I had tried SleepPhones but got too hot with the fleece.). I do have to crank up the sound all the way up and still can't hear the softest 30% or so, which may mean the speakers aren't positioned quite right. Will let y'all know tomorrow what I think
- on the tmi-adventures front, the big-ass box of diapers -- more cost effective for unit costs than a single pack -- arrived today. In fun not-quite-irony, I have managed three whole nights without issue, but a) that wasn't likely to last anyway, and b) knowing that I have, er, backup, let me do something as horribly drastic as drink water rather than go to bed thirsty zomg what is this.
- armwise, there is still pain and awkwardness but it's mostly manageable with painkillers (prescription, but the milder sorts, ibuprofen during the day and Vicodin mainly at night). The biggest issue is that the way my chair controls are set up requires my right hand to be more palm-down-rotated than it wants to any more. WTB telepathic chair controls dangit.
- voice dictation stuff still kinda sucks
- as does my computer nagging me about genuine windows blahblahblah
- the kitteh had a vet checkup (following up from the kidney issues diagnosed in November) and is doing better. BUN and creatinine levels are half of what they were, though still high, and her phosphorous is back to normal range, and she managed to gain a whole pound of weight. (which is a lot for someone that weighed 7 and change when I got her and had dropped to 5). Woot etc.
