Holy cow I think I'm going to have to start wearing long underwear to work. It is colder than is believable here in my work dungeon. My goodness! My chair is upholstered and it STILL feels cold! My desk is ice. I again clutch the warmth of my Styrofoam Dunkin'Donuts cup and try to think warm thoughts.

We have secured our date for a Florida vacation! (Speaking of warm thoughts!!!) We leave at the end of February. ONE MORE MONTH! We are doing a time share thing. My husband is renting a van and we are driving down with kids and golf clubs. I'm just starting to learn to golf so this should be interesting.

Wow, those warms thoughts didn't even help. I am waiting for ice crystals to form in my hair since I didn't have time to dry it today. I go to the dermatologist this afternoon to get a mole checked. Boy does that make me nervous.

I'm having one of those days!!! I accomplished so many things yesterday, but today everything seems to be at a s t a n d s t i l l. I hate when work projects just won't cooperate and when people don't call back! So, I skipped lunch and went to the dermatologist today. I walked in healthy with a questionable mole (irregular border). I walked out with 3 prescriptions, an order for a blood test to see if I'm diabetic, and a biopsy scheduled for my mole a week from Friday!

YIKES! I thought I had some combination skin: dry skin, red skin, and sometimes oily skin. Now I have Rosacea, Seborrheic Dermatitis, and something else I didn't even write down. Oh, and he said I'm bumpy using his fancy dermatologist dialect -- a few bumps on my skin and he had to call it some "condition." Nothing was that big of a deal -- just more than I bargained for today.


So, say a prayer for me -- having the dermatologist dislike my mole made me a little nervous. Then being scheduled for the biopsy on his very next surgery day made me a little nervous too. The offending mole is right at the edge of my eyebrow and spreading. I'll be happy with a big ugly scar as long as I don't have cancer. He gave me a 90% chance for no worries -- so I'm not completely freaked out, just a little worried. Anyway, a prayer would be appreciated :)

Linguistics class this semester -- the whole class dislikes the professor. I'm starting to feel sorry for her even though I'm irritated that I don't understand her. I'll be happy to just pass this one, there is no hope for grade point average enhancement. Educational Technology Class: OOPS I didn't take the prerequisite! I would have been wiser to take this AFTER taking the curriculum and methods classes. OOPS. Sometimes I make things harder than they have to be. I'm inventing the wheel weekly in this class :)

Not Smoking -- It will be a week tomorrow! YIPPEE!! I want one really badly, but I will not break! Breathing is much easier this week, that is what I have to keep telling myself.


Only 9 more minutes until I escape work!
