Boobie Bump Update

Well, I saw the surgeon about the lump yesterday.

There was poking... it didn't like it.

And we talked about options.

Which are, schedule a lumpectomy, do a needle biopsy, or wait and observe it for 3 months.

The lumpectomy is a bit extreme, it would be the only conclusive way to know if it is not the Big C, but since it is most likely not the Big C, it will probably resolve itself.

Needle Biopsy, unless it comes back cancer, its not a conclusive test, because its possible to miss the lump and come back with healthy cells. So, I would still have to come back in 3 months. An added bonus is the lump is tender, and while they can numb the skin, they can't numb the lump itself, so its likely the procedure would have been painful.

I chose to wait and see. I am to keep an eye on it, er... finger? and if there is any change I am to go back, and if it goes away, well I am off the hook... if its still there in three months, but with no change, I'll really get a needle in the boob.

Yippee

So, with the symptoms and how it feels, its 85% not likely cancer.

Where was I?

so, I spent a lot of money at Costco yesterday.

but in my defense, I did get a gym membership.

good for 2 years... I'll probably even go.

what else.... oh pretty redheaded boy of whom I have a long standing crush... now my facebook friend. Pretty sure it would never work out... but its important to have someone who sets your heart fluttering a little.

Not usually a fan of redheads myself, I like a little dark and mysterious... but he is smart and has his own opinions.

I still might go to the Zoo today, not sure though... still it could happen. And it better happen soon.

Intiman Theatre Presents A THOUSAND CLOWNS

Hello, here is a little video made by my friend Dennis, with everyone he could find who was involved with A Thousand Clowns!

Another long time no hear from Laura update

Well, the show is freakin' finally open!
Hurray!

Lets see, you know about the mammogram, well as expected, I had to see my doctor, (I saw a different physician in her office before) - she felt the lump, and told me to set up a thing with the surgeon for a needle poking... I am sure there is a technical name for it. Now I am sorry I brought it up, you know... cause the surgeon is going to poke it with a needle... and you would think I would be done. But no, there will be tests, we all know its nothing. An after a phone call and email to me, to confirm its nothing, I might have to go back to my doctor before they can Cut It the Fuck Out!
Don't let me get started on my stupid insurance, because every time I see anyone, its more than $100 bucks out of my pocket, plus tests. ARGH!!!
Anyway... that's what is going on with that.

So, A Thousands Clowns is good, a bunch of work for me, but its shaping up, it is a prop heavy show, and our ASM is as green as grass, and the SM rusty and not very agressive. So, that has not been ideal, but its working itself out. I am going to redo some of my paperwork, because I am not sure what it is, but the preset list is not working for me, and it seems to be incomplete. Its sort of a different thing for me, but I worry mostly because once a week Adam has to do my job, after having been coached a little, but only having run it once while I am there and the rest of the time, only relyiing on paper work, and memory. Good Times

So an unprecedented thing is occuring as I write... I get 3 days off in the middle of the season. we are not doing shows while folklife is going on at Seattle Center... usually this happens because there is some folklife performing in our space, but it isnt. so, 3 day weekend. I am going to the zoo today with my friend Ali and her boyfriend. and I have to tie dye baby clothes for Sabine's new daughter Maia Jesse Wecker. And there is sock wars where I am whoafully behind... and I get to mail it to germany.

I do not think this is the Sock Wars where I will be the supreme warrior.

I think I am behind on the Mystery socks too.. and maybe I will work on that.

I have to go now, to get ready for the Zoo.

As I am about to go into tech

so, I am about to go into tech week on Tuesday, so , a few 14+ hour days, then I promise I will update again...
life is fine, I am trying to perk up, but dread of next week is dragging me down, I am sure I will have plenty to do...

ummm I have nothing much to report other than that... I think my old computer died yesterday... I have to fuck around with it, I fear I might have waited a little too long to get the old files off of it.

Maybe its just a virus.

I actually sent my mother flowers for mothers day. Odd for me, she wont think its her kid.

Wishful drinking

I just got back from Carrie Fisher's Wishful Drinking at the Seattle Rep.

and I am still smiling, hilarious. If it comes anywhere near you, you should see it. Its sort of on a tour I think, so you might be in luck.

Its mostly about being a child of a celebrity and being crazy. A little about Star Wars... mostly about the hair... but mostly funny.

I would rate it R for mature themes, and I say that because teenagers would be embarrassed to be there.

Maybe more later, I have to go to bed, I am fairly resigned to going in at 8am tomorrow, I can set my own schedule during load in but, if I go at 8am I might be able to leave early. I feel bad that I want to work as close to 40 hours as I can this week... since Jeanette is working all kinds of time, but I am not really that helpful set wise, and I figure lets save the theatre a little bit of money by me not going into to much overtime. There will be plenty of overtime next week.

Another Day

Well, today might be my only day off until Monday - so, I have out of the house errands to do... been avoiding many of them but I can't any longer.

I must go to Costco and the Library, and possibly Home Depot. It might not sound like much, but it is at least three hours out of the house... this is when I miss a car. When I could get it all done in an hour and a half.

What I want to do is watch movies all day, but I also need to cook food for the next 4 days. or at least sort out the strawberry situation. And eat the blackberries. mmmmmm

I should really clean up a little around here too, I keep saying that, but then the cats sing a siren call of hang out in the bed, hang out in bed. or make a lap, make a lap.
