EDITED: THE PROBABILITY WAVE HAS COLLAPSED. ALL SCANNED CATS ARE AS THEY SHOULD BE.

so there's this cat. and there's a box. and the cat is in the box. and maybe something's happened to the cat, but we can't tell. except, really, there's no cat and no box. there's a probability wave. and it's hanging there, like a big kahuna wave, ready to crash down. and there's not really a wave. but anyways, there's a cat in a box and maybe the cat is alive and maybe the cat is dead but the cat is neither alive nor dead until that big kahuna wave comes crashing down and the probability wave collapses and then the cat is alive or the cat is dead.

so, the cat isn't alive and the cat isn't dead. at least not yet.

but, i've got my ear to the box, and i think i can hear the cat. i think the cat is alive.

in some way, i've opened the box, except i can't actually tell if the cat is alive or dead -- i'm not qualified to tell how alive this particular cat is. the cat *looks* alive, now, to my unskilled eye, but then again, it might be a zombie cat.

i'm holding out my hand to it and saying "here, kitty kitty kitty"

Hee! If I ever write a story where someone is explaining the nature of magic to a novice, I may steal that.

I are confused....but that's not anything new.

Maybe the kitty *is* a zombie cat and if so, will it curl up warm and snuggly on your lap?

heh. hopefully not.

i had schroedinger's CAT scan yesterday. i'm not a radiologist, so i can't be sure, but it doesn't *look* like there's anything inappropriate lurking in there. but i'm not a radiologist, so who knows for sure, yet.

Sympathy for you being in the ugly state of limbo. Hope you get good news soon.

I'm really not a radiologist, because it didn't look like anything was in there.

And I know that's not true.

oh, the brain part i posted was from a hopefully unrelated part of my body. we're more concerned with the abdomen. i just thought the picture of brains was pretty cool. (there's some variety in grey, there, indicating that there's *something* between my ears...)

It also looks like you have a MASSIVE booger-dam goin' on in there. Or is that normal sunus stuff?

or, you know, i was.

Sorry--I forgot, but then, this week has had it's own corner in hell...sigh.

Please do let me know what they tell you (seriously).
Love you.

Whatever you do, make sure to keep the airlock door open, just in case, and remember it's blood is acid.

oh dear. when is the wave scheduled to collapse?

From: [identity profile] rmd.livejournal.com
the probability wave should officially collapse some time next week, i'd guess. i'm trying to not be inappropriately optimistic, but appropriately low-key optimism appears to be called for.

i'm glad that at least low-key optimism is called for. when the wave collapses, i hope you find the cat in whatever state will gruntle you most.
