Updates (Day 45 with a magnetic finger!)

Oh goodness – it’s the beginning of the end of this blog… I almost made a post solely to apologize for not posting more often – that’s like the death rattle of a blog. *cringe*

ANYWAY.

What’s been going on in my life (abridged):

  • Got back from an awesome trip in Texas
  • Have been hard at work building server provisioning procedures at work (I’ll post some on here when I’m done; they’re great resources for anyone trying to take a box from bare metal to server)
  • My magnet is still in my finger, with no change from the last post (shocker!). I think it’s hit an equilibrium point in extrusion, and may be in my finger for a while longer.
  • I’ve got a big 100mL bottle of lidocaine I got from Thailand for $20 (much better deal)
  • I’ve got 2 more magnets in the mail, this time new and improved from the research done by Amal and Glims over at Biohack.me. They’re titanium nitride coated; much more durable and resistant to fouling than my last ones. Gonna wait for a bit and do another implantation! :D

Things are pretty busy with work at the moment, but it’s just a few weeks until I’m off and relaxing until school!

    • Still in, against all odds! it’s settled into a nice layer between the dermis and epidermis; I’m giving it another month before I expect it would fully work its way out. I’m waiting on the new TiN magnets from glims over at biohack.me; hopefully they’ll go in and stay in!
