First, update: saw Dr. R today; all is well. I told her about our relocation plans. She was happy for me. She did say she thought I was due for a CT scan in October, but my memory is that Dr. M said I was now on a yearly CT scan schedule rather than every 6 months. Dr. R said she would defer to him, and she tended to be conservative, but she thought 6 months was a good idea. That was a bit of a bummer. I'll talk to Dr. M about it when I go through the BP&VP (butt poke and vagina pull), but I'm thinking a year is soon enough. I've read some disturbing things about the amount of radiation from CT scans; it would be pretty ironic to GET cancer from CT scans whose purpose is to look for cancer recurrence.
Second, little bitty rant: I was thinking it might be appropriate to see how Todd Akin liked a little legitimate - or even illegitimate - bop upside his bitty brain. Of course, the Democrats may end up owing him a debt of gratitude. I hear Paul Ryan proposed legislation in 2011 that said essentially the same thing Akin is now being torn limb-from-limb over. Be nice if some of Akin's tar could run off onto Ryan's arrogant feathers. Enough.
As Rodney King - may he rest in peace - would ask, "Can't we all just get along?" Tonight I would answer, "Honestly, Rodney, I don't know, I really don't know. How does one get along with someone like a Congressman who talks about 'legitimate rape'? I don't know, Rodney, makes me feel kind of blue."
Peace anyway.
