I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That all sounds good! Nap for me, please. I don't know why but I started wanting to just go back to bed (like, more than I always do) about an hour ago but I cannot

That which does not kill you should RUN

I did! Holy cow!

Oh god the ENDING!!! I am super tense now! I also forgot about the cowcatcher that Leif launched at Kroc when he was what can generously be called "mentally iffy," and I wonder if that will come into play with the weapon launched at the cube. Tim thinks no, and tried to explain his reasoning by talking about gravity waves, but that just made my brain hurt.

On the bigger big bad out there, I remember at the end of the previous season Kroc referred to "little brother," and we still don't know who that is. Speculation ranged from Chuck (remember him/it?) to Leif to Caspar to the diner itself. So mysterious "little brother" is one option for the bigger bad, I guess.

I don't know if the Midnight Burger and Welcome to the Horizon storylines are supposed to converge at the end of this season, but I feel like they have to. If the diner ends up in the now-traveling Hood's Pocket, they'll be so excited to see the Mungo! Also Leif, of course. I feel like Frank and Trinkett and Tavrok have to be useful in the fight against Kroc.

Meloxicam is still works well for me.

The combination of a steroid shot in my bad hip plus daily meloxicam worked SO well to keep the pain basically gone. When I got my second steroid shot 3 weeks ago at the orthopedic practice, the ortho bro doctor said he can't keep refilling the meloxicam for me, that I'm going to need to see my primary care provider for that, because I need to have labwork done to make sure the meloxicam isn't fucking up various organs. I genuinely don't understand why the ortho bro couldn't order labwork, but whatever. I have an appointment with my primary care provider in a couple of weeks to see if I can continue the meloxicam. In the meantime, ibuprofen is definitely not working as well, so I have a moderate amount of breakthrough pain despite the steroid shot. Grrr.

Boo breakthrough pain. Also I now can only picture Dr Glaucomflecken with the phrase “ortho bro”.

Yay renewing license and improving vision! You know if you hadn’t gotten the documents together they would’ve suddenly needed them.
