Something keeps tapping on my window. I am unnerved.


Watched Treasure Planet tonight. I really liked it, and was amused at the combination of 2D & 3D animation; it reminded me of that anime we saw at Manifest, the name of which currently eludes me (as it has nothing to do with the plot). It was about couriers in a warzone, anyway.

The only big problem I had with Treasure Planet was that it didn't have Billy Connolly as Billy Bones. On the converse, the only thing I don't like about Muppet Treasure Island is that Hawkins has a mullet. That's just plain unattractive. (Random factoid: apparently the guy who plays Mr Arrow in the former is also a pirate in the latter. Small world.)


Work tomorrow; that should be a joyeaux experience. Wish I could take it off... I'd love to have a week of lying in bed. Reading. Maybe some writing. It'd be spiffy. Unfortunately, what with the hospital costs (apparently I am still covered by my parents' insurance, but this only saves me about $30) and having already had two days off, I can't fiscally afford it. And besides, I'm supposed to be helping on this damn project which wraps up September 15, and I dread to think how far behind we now are. *sigh*


I should have talked to dad about how we're going to arrange this ultrasound. Feh. So now, rather than organise it for tomorrow afternoon, I'll have to talk to him about it tomorrow evening. I may have to skip coffee group tomorrow evening... maybe we can still do it when I get home from work. Otherwise the earliest I'll be able to do it is Wednesday.

I've been contemplating this possible ovarian cyst, and wondering if it'll lead to infertility. I have always railed against my female reproductive system, as I've never had plans to have kids. Still, true to my contrary nature, the idea of being rendered infertile makes me angry. Stupid, but true. Dammit, if I wanted to be rendered infertile, I want it to be my own decision.

The anime was called "Last Exile", by Studio Gonzo.

I meant to check out Treasure Planet. I'll have to get around to it soon . . .

See, I knew someone'd be able to supply me with the title! Otherwise I might have gone to slightly greater lengths to find it out. ;)

Ugh, I hate to be evil but I was kinda hoping you'd be going to coffee group so I could get your AWC money. I'm sending it off tomorrow regardless, but I was hoping I'd be able to replace the money in my bank account on Tuesday.

Ah, no worries, if you don't. I'm not getting Misti's money until Thursday.

Done and done. *pets*

But the Muppets' Hawkins has that delightful androgyny thing going (and the disturbing high note) that is even mocked in the script!

"... and I'm not a girl."

You can still have long hair - and look like a girl - without it being a mullet.

They'll probably just stick you on the pill and if you're already on it, they'll up your dose. The pain goes away quickly. I had a few, but no need to do surgery. My sister has had surgery twice. I guess the pill helps in the long run. Are there any other cures?

[delirieuse.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm not on the pill as I am neither a) sexually active, nor b) straight. And I will object if they try to put me on it. I don't need random synthesised hormones, thank you so much. My own are causing me enough trouble...

I did a wee bit of reading, and there's at least three types of ovarian cysts. Some reaaaally need surgery. One sort is quite frightening, actually... not in a life-threatening way, just mildly creepy.

And I still don't know if it *is* a cyst yet. I need to get to hosp and have an ultrasound done, and that's really hard to juggle with work.

Just remember to not pee before the ultrasound. I did once, and I had to drink 16 glasses of water so my bladder was full. A safety remember--have a full bladder.
