I'm loving the slanted blinds-shade the photographer decided to add behind Ms. Tyvek there. What the heck is up with that? Size-referencing?... Some "Must be used in association with blinds"-requirement?... I'm baffled.
Anyway. Glad to hear you seem to be not entirely at the end of your tether after this week, even though you may have lost a few brain cells to repetitive lab work (just guessin'). :)
(Which reminds me: Where is that super-dexterous-uber-programmable-in-a-heartbeat robot Japan keeps promising us? Sure, this one http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/in_pictures/7114785.stm can do toast but really? That's a bit lame... )
On writing: Wrote something every day but Monday. Found that I overuse exclamation marks! Should do something about that. Annoyingly, the household (and my head in particular these past three days) has been overrun by winter-bugs lately, so it's all been pretty (petty really) moany.
In the interest of sharing words though, I had a routine appointment with a skin doctor, who imparted with some pearls of wisdom regarding skin vs. pregnancy I did not know about. So I'll leave you with those as a PSA, and warn people that it discusses warts. Yeah. Warts. Joy! (ahemm - exlamation mark!)
Today was more out and about. I met up with my skin doctor of many years this morning, and he told me that birth marks tend to look more feisty when women are pregnant, and then recede after they give birth! He also told me that dormant warts (supposedly dead warts) have a tendency to bloom when women are pregnant, even though they’ve been dormant for years or decades!
Another wart-related item that surprised me: Skin doctors don’t like to freeze warts on women who are pregnant, just in case the ‘sudden pain’ causes a premature delivery! Or as the doctor said “If something like that happens, you don’t want to have something to blame it on.” Fair enough.
(Why oh why was I so excited about that darn doctor's visit?... Am I really just a fact-slut?... Jeeez...)
