Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Oh ita, good luck on your MRI tomorrow. Try to keep your head still, is about the only advice I can think of. Or maybe, close your eyes if you're at all claustrophobic.

I am proud of the fact that I not only rocked geometry in tenth grade, I actually enjoyed it.

Anything higher than algebra just ... it's like another language to me. I tend to be a visual learner, so maybe it's the fact that I can't picture what X is supposed to stand for or whatever.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

good luck on your MRI tomorrow.

Thanks!

I'm planning on falling asleep. It's NINETY MINUTES. I've never had a head MRI that went more than 20 or so. And I thought the awake/asleep EEG was going to be the annoying test.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I'd forgotten that tomorrow was MRI day, ita. Good luck!

I almost fell asleep, except I never sleep on my back and the random noise was a bit too much.

One of my biggest fears was that my nose would itch and I'd be unable to scratch it. That did happen, but it was only a minor itch so it was no biggie.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Delurking because, love! I started university as a math major (it got hard, I switched to English. Then I couldn't get into classes because they were full, I started working part-time. Went back 10 years later to finish the English degree. Kind of wish I hadn't given up on the math though)

I still remember the day the prof did that proof in class. I wouldn't shut up about it for weeks. I still, 17 (ack!) years later, love it to pieces.

~ma and yay to all as appropriate. Good luck with the MRI, ita!

Our wings are not tired.

Yikes, 90 minutes. Napping sounds like a good plan. Best of luck ita. May they find nothing but spicy brains.

I'm not even going to ask what makes that pretty.

MRI~ma, ita! And fingers crossed for really good results.

It's the whole, "No way! Really!?" aspect of it.

In my mind, pi has to do with circles, geometry, trig, etc. e has to do with logarithms, calculus and what-not, and i of course is imaginary. They seem like unmixy things.
