2. Go see the effervescent, stunningly gorgeous Meklit Hadero live. Incredible.
3. Watch a 3 year old help a grown-man get unstuck from a box the grown man put on, as if a shirt, pretending to be a robot.
4. Take their breasts, or as I like to call mine, beasts to get their first mammogram ever. Tomorrow I do it.
Authentic Cleavage... -----> (mine, incidentally)
Now all the wankers who google "hot soapy women" along with the attendant "cleavage" can have something to look at when they land on my blog. Sigh. But seriously. My kind, gentle aunt died of breast cancer. One of my best friends battled it. My husband's best friend's vivacious mother tragically succumbed to it at a far too young age. And I know that someway, somehow it has also affected your life.
Solidarity in vigilance, my sisters.

YOUR brain is hemorraging? I love that. I want to use it.
Good luck tomorrow, get that puppy done and move on.
Mammos are a piece o'cake. Every woman will tell you a horror story that begins like this:
Mammograms are the WORST for small breasted women. (only said if they have small breasts)
or
Mammorgrams are the WORST for large breasted women. (only said by large breasted women)
Fact o'the matter is, they need to squish you. And you know what? Yeah, it is uncomfortable. But you know what else? If you cooperate and you have a good tech who explains which way you need to bend and turn to get all the tatas into the slides and you RELAX and just DO IT????? It is over before you know it and it hurts way the effe less than not doing it and maybe suffering the consequences.
And yes. It has affected me. My sister.
PS. Good for you for doing it. I meant to say that. Good for you. Wish I could give you a high five.
My little girl and I watched the Meklit Hadero video together just now, and she referred to Meklit as "all konjo'd up." Not sure why we've not gotten any Meklit into our iTunes playlists yet--probably because we live under a rock. So thank you for giving us more good music to enjoy together!
Ha ha your boss is not going to mess with YOU! I haven't gone in for a mammogram even though I've got a few years on you. I figure,with mine, there is no place to hide, so why bother... right? Think there might be some sand around my head? OK I'll do it soon. I'll be looking forward to hearing if the experience really is as unpleasant as I've heard. Sounds like you picked a good week for it.
nice cleav! ;) Good job getting it done. Just got mine patted down a few weeks ago. (Not) good times.
It wasn't bad! I had no idea it was basically like a waffle press for a titty sans the toasting. It was kind of funny looking at my usually-roundish boob all flattened out like tortilla.
Thanks for the good jobs!
Wow- Do you think our PMS is synced because we are neighbors? is this possible even though we hardly get to see each other? And not to be Debbie Downer but both my Mom's and Grandmother's breast cancer was not caught on mammograms, so be sure to do the bi-monthly self exams too. Bummed that I missed the concert.
Yay Los Cazadores! Good job!!!!! I am so stinkin proud of you. See? I knew you could do it because you're a kick ass kind of person.
Mamacita Bicicleta, you are too kind, amiga. :)
How do you make such awful things so funny?
And speaking of funny, I'm still laughing my head off at 'all konjo'ed up' from Zinashi.
Never heard of Meklit Hadero. But so glad that I have now - what fantastic music! Glad you survived the mammo and that they didn't accidentally switch those waffle irons to 'toast'.
Thanks for the Meklit Hadero tip and the guilt trip/inspiration to do the right thing/mamogram. I love the soundtrack to the box video. I'd love to hear the conversation that preceded the hemmoraging brain quote!
You are so funny, pancake breast lady! And so are your son and hubs. PMSers roar!!!!
