rotator cuff: the adventure continues

June 1, 2003


It rained a lot.

Beethoven moved to PETsMART where maybe people will notice him more and somebody will adopt him.

Nancy and I rented Castle in the Sky on Saturday night and loved it. Nancy had never seen it before. When I saw it in ancient times on the big screen at the Somerville Theater (back when the Somerville Theater had one screen) it was in Japanese with English subtitles, and it was called Laputa. So this version was a new experience for me too. I have to admit that I loved Cloris Leachman's portrayal of Dola, the pirate Mom. She gave it just the right tone.

It rained a lot.

I've bought more books: Village Japan by Malcolm Ritchie on Thursday, The Hungarians by Paul Lendvai on Saturday, and The Great Wave by Christopher Benfey on Sunday. I meant to buy a Hungarian-English dictionary. None of the above is a Hungarian-English dictionary.

It rained a lot.

I went to the MRI place. I felt like I needed to leave a trail of bread crumbs from the check-in office to the loading dock or whatever it was where the lift takes you up to the MRI. OK, so those MRI things are pretty tight. They slid me in and my shoulder was so pinched between the wall and my body that it hurt - a lot. Seems like everything makes my shoulder hurt these days. That's why the arthropod wanted the MRI. Well, duh. I told the MRI tech I couldn't stay that way for 3 minutes, let alone 45 minutes. It just hurt too much. Fine way to cap off a rainy weekend - with the traditional painful Sunday night MRI attempt. Grrr. Must call the doctor's office again in the morning.

It stopped raining.
