I took Dad to Costco today so he could stock up. If he has a full fridge maybe he won't go driving. We were going up and down the aisles and I was suggesting different things to him and he kept saying he didn't need anything. I finally got him going, though. He ended up buying some lunchmeat and some pre-cooked chicken, mixed nuts, some chicken bakes and small pizzas. I wanted to make sure he had enough protein available so he could add some to a salad or something.
Not a bad day. He was his usual foggy self this morning.
Going to Kaiser tomorrow for a boob check. Me, not him.

Ah, even a couple with no kids can spend a bundle at Costco. Their meats are pretty good and much cheaper than in the grocery stores. Today we skipped all the kitchen stuff and the tools and sports gear. Dad seemed like he was tiring so we left after stuffing the cart full of food. What I totally don't get is the display case full of Lladro figurines and crystal knick-knacks. Some of that stuff is pure crap and it's expensive!

Boob check: Ya mean Jim didn't offer up to do that for you?
I can't help but feeling a bit worried in Costco, that an earthquake will strike and I'll be buried under tons of canned goods.
lhzivh = the universal word for being prostate on the ground with a salad bowl nearby.
Vivage, I offered, but I suppose I'd be either too thorough, not thorough enough, or both simultaneously!
ntrmpyy? Why yes, thank you for noticing!
Yeah, the doctor caused me to yelp a couple times so if you had been doing the exam I would have had to clobber you.
She didn't find anything. I felt a suspicious lump a couple nights ago and it was there last night but it's gone today. I had a mammogram so if there's anything there it'll show up.
Funny thing, the technician looked a LOT like Virginia. She was a small, Asian woman, about the same age and even though she was chewing gum I could tell she's a smoker. Her hair was longer, tho.
It was pretty funny. I'm standing there, becoming one with the mammo machine and having my breasts savagely manipulated by Virginia.
Interesting morning.
Urvnneq! -What I said when the maching squished down on what was probably more than just breast tissue

Sooo, you left a comment just so you could get a word verification?
Jim, somehow I just knew you'd be one with the breasts, all you boys should have had the foresight to be mammo techs!
That musta been my evil twin doppleganger savagely manipulating. Probably needed to let out some steam cuz she needed a cig or something.
eqecvz = equal cuz I sez so
