A lot of things have been happening to my body and brain, and so far it has mostly been ordeals without a clear resolution (low response means we had to try a new anesthetic that hurts like fire going in, might be changing electrode placement which could lead to memory loss, the vein the anesthetic went in when I woke up during the procedure is hardened and itchy now, and so on). But I'm in good medical hooves, and expect that things will turn around eventually.

So, I'm back. No memory loss, not much tiredness, nothing notable (apart from a little emotional breakdown afterwards while still struggling to breathe again post-procedure). It was simpler than going to the dentist, truth be told. If it's this easy I might not need to take as much time off work as I'd been planning.

Oh, one more thing. I woke up in the middle of the procedure.

Treatment starts tomorrow.

Okay, so apparently the ECT doctor is still conferring with the doctor who installed my neurostim implant so it will be safe to proceed. That means no zap today.

In all likelihood the zap will be Wednesday morning. I'll post about it after it happens.

EDIT: Zomg they're still not sure about doing it with the implant in place and now they have to talk to the manufacturer! Earliest will be Friday and even then I don't know.

Things were delayed a few more days, but it's all clear now. My first electroshock treatment commences tomorrow at 9:30 am EDT (less than fifteen hours away).

Yeah, it's probably not going to shut me up either.

I've been under observation for almost three days after checking myself into the ER here locally, and now I am finally back home again.

Upshot is that I'm going to be starting the ECT treatments immediately (next Wednesday or Friday).

This is probably closer to accurate than you'd expect.

The pony game is coming along swimmingly. I'm at a point where I know exactly how to proceed to get things the way I want them, and all that remains is the drudgery of doing it.

I'm not sure when playtesting will happen. I'm tempted to put the entire thing together first, but I'll probably split the difference and start playtesting somewhere in the middle. I'll try to keep the bar update realistic.

This is my 200th blog post (well, maybe: Fimfiction's database is buggier than a parasprite invasion when it comes to tracking simple counts), and I recently topped 400 followers too!

Also, I'm making quick progress on a vidya game that will be amazing.

Today should, by all rights, be time to party.

New minific from the recent Writeoff. Dark and Drama, as usual.

Enjoy!

I've finished the hero animations for the Earth Pony, Unicorn, Pegasus, Zebra, and Nightwing hero classes. I will likely be tweaking these further by adding more shading texture to the non-Zebra hero images. I might save the shading tweaks until after playtesting begins—I haven't quiet decided yet.
