MRI

[redbird]

I had a brain MRI this morning; this is routine monitoring because of the MS.

Things I noticed before, during, and after the MRI:

• Mount Auburn Hospital has changed their Covid screening in the last ten days, and didn't point a thermometer at my forehead.
• The hospital's earplugs were effective (usually I bring my own, Earplanes)
• Some bright yellow daffodils on Mt Auburn Street
• The MBTA has resumed collecting bus fares on the outbound 73 when people exit rather than when they board. Right now they seem to be doing some of each: When my bus arrived, the driver gestured me to back up so someone else could pay and get off the bus, so I also paid on exiting, but saw other people exiting in the back, presumably having paid when they boarded the bus. And yes, it's still urging people "if possible, exit through the rear door," like all the other MBTA buses these days.
