HP: The Exhibition and stuff

Happy Birthday, [livejournal.com profile] jiggery_pokery! (Thanks, Hedwig, for pointing out my t00bery)

And in other news, I took yesterday off work to attend a bunch of press events related to Harry Potter: The Exhibition's east coast premiere at the Boston MoS. If you are an HP fan of any variety, and you have a chance to see this, GO. Will definitely be going back, with another whole day, and a sturdy notepad.

Many Alternity-related thoughts are bubbling out of that....



Meanwhile, Wednesday I woke up with a quarter-sized or so area on my right side that hurt like almighty hell. This afternoon I managed to get into the dermatologist and turns out it was a burst cyst. Yeah. Disgusting and not fun. She drained it and I'm keeping hot compresses on it.

ETA: And I walked a large portion of my trip home, luckily while still numb, because DAMN, it hurts now that the anesthetic wore off.



Also Wednesday I took my car in for some maintenance. They did a bunch of stuff but now it has a weird noise in the engine, so back it goes tomorrow for them to check out what they did.

Never ends.

Man, I need a nap.

How long does the HP exhibition last? I don't expect to be in Boston in the next, say, six months, but if it lasts another year then you never know.

Very sorry to hear about the cyst, but glad that you didn't have to suffer with it for long. Fingers crossed that the pain subsides very quickly indeed, and also for a swift resolution with the car.

The Exhibition is here through Feb 21. You and Meg want to come here for the holidays, don't you? Don't you?? Don't know where it's off to afterward.


(The car turns out to be the power steering pump, completely unrelated (hah) to the area they were working on. Harrumph. Have scheduled a power steering flush this week and meanwhile will plan to check the warranty.)

And the cyst, yeah, resolved quickly enough. It hurts today, but it's the pain of the trauma from fixing it, not the same thing at all.
