Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Kat, I need to re-get you that insurance info I promised you--the computer I had it on crashed again. Let me get on that.

In don't read the comment news, there are a couple of real assholes commenting on Roger Federer's Wimbledon page. If you're a stalwart fan of his opponent, why not go big up his opponent on his page instead of pissing on Roger's? People, I swear. I hope all the people that tweeted at Andy were nice to him.

OOhkay, less than 10 days before the trip, dad is diag with shallow vein thrombosis or somesuch. 2 clots detected and he's to go on bloodthinners. Still has the ok to travel. His bp is up which is freaky because usually the alarming thing at his physicals is they can't get a pulse b/c his bp and pulse are so low. And he had one not long ago. WTF.

okey dokey.

What's frustrating is that I do this every year for Grace and I can't remember if I'm supposed to answer about Grace's assets or mine? So frustrating.

Whyfor the passports, Kat?

My day was spent mostly seeing the doctor. She was nice, nothing is wrong, but she decided to just go ahead and take care of every test that had come due, which meant, among other things, an unplanned mammogram. A bit time consuming.

Tell me I shouldn't be overly concerned that the technician felt the need to redo all the images on the left side. Right? Because it weirded me out and has left me wondering what she saw.

Possibly Canada, Burrell. Plus options and the ability to prove citizenship and ID for someone who otherwise doesn't have any. If I could get Grace to the post office I'd get her one too. More pressing, in fact, to get her one.

Burrell, I'd think more technical error than something scary.

I expect that's the reason sarameg, but when she opted to take another scan of the breast without even examining the previous image, I got suspicious.

That sounds like "oh shit, I fucked up procedure" even more if she hadn't seen the first.

My passport expired a few months ago and I haven't gotten a new one yet. I should do that soon.

Okay. That's good to hear.
