Yes, I did. I got my lazy ass showered and dressed and got to the damn hospital to have blood drawn. I thought I’d just be able to walk into the lab as the nurse directed me to via phone, but nooooooooo — I had to go and sit and wait to friggin’ register. Four people ahead of me. Damn! I was hoping that waiting until late afternoon would get me in and out quicker. No such luck.
Went shopping in Matamoras’ Price Chopper afterwards. Spent enough to come away with a receipt for accumulated purchases that now grant us $1.60 off each gallon of gas at a Sunoco station for up to a 20 gallon purchase. MUST take one car to a station before the allowance expires and take advantage.
Spent too damn much on groceries, but we’ll eat, so screw it. Bought a beautiful top round roast – it’s HUGE, and I’ll prepare that on Sunday for the huz. Him luvs him some roasted beast and gravy. There’ll be lots of leftovers. Pepper steak with mushrooms & onions over rice, maybe some sliced up really thin for cheese steak sandwiches. Yep – leftovers are a good thing sometimes. Hit the seafood section and was amazed to find flounder at $3.99 per pound. WTF? Mistake? I questioned the fish monger, he stated they got a great deal on it and that he had already sold over 500 pounds of it so far this week. I bought 4 pounds, had him split it up and tossed some in the freezer. I bet I won’t see that price again for a long, long time. About 6 months ago I went specifically to buy flounder and it was $16.99 per pound. We bought orange roughy instead. I also once again bought swiss cheese and mushrooms to make quiche. Now I’ll hope that I actually get to it and not let the mushrooms shrivel up to unrecognizable states again. 
Sit here looking at my damn hands. Christ – looks like the paws of an 80 year old! OK, so I know I’m slightly dehydrated, need to get some liquids into my system, but … yuck, old lady skin. Moisturizer would help, too, I suppose.
Since my sweet, darling daughter also shopped with me we have extra goodies in the house. Wonder how she’ll feel when I start buying stuff only allowed as per e-diet lists. I haven’t chosen the diet program from the site yet, but will do so very soon. We need to stop with all of the rich, wonderfully indulgent foods, the huz & I, and start eating stuff that’s very good for us. I wonder if Doctor Oz might have some kind of plan up on that site? I heard him mention recently that he eats blueberries every single day. That they are like the most superdy dooper anti-oxidant fruit, so I bought some. ’spensive suckers, too! What’s fucked up about that is … that I plan on making home made pancake mix and using the blueberries in them. LOL We love blueberry pancakes here. Ohhh so yummy… and we mix butter with maple syrup, nuke it, and ladle it over the cakes. OMG, heaven indeed.
So, that’s about it for now. Probably update more on Monday after I get home from the biopsy. I know that I’ll have to stay in the hospital for several hours afterward to be sure my liver doesn’t hemorrhage from the procedure. Have to be sure my iPod is fully charged so I don’t go crazy waiting to be discharged. I recently loaded the most recent J.D. Robb book, Fantasy in Death to listen to, so that will help me deal with the waiting.
DONE
