Almost More Excitement Than The Law Allows

Today was the day I finally got the scan for my kidney stone and I really don't think it's going to show a damn thing that's useful. I believe it just moves around in there at will, sometimes leaving me completely pain-free and sometimes causing disturbing and uncomfortable symptoms. But at least I did it and I managed to get to the hospital, find a parking space in the hospital lot, find where I was supposed to go to check in, get the scan, and successfully find my car when it was all over. 
They have their system together at the hospital when it comes to things like this. You self-check in at a portal, sit down and someone will call your name and you go into their office and sign some documents saying you won't sue the hospital if they kill you and they put your patient bracelet on you and a volunteer escorts you to the room you'll be waiting in until someone else escorts you to the treatment room. The scan itself took about five minutes, tops. Then another person escorts you back to where the elevators are that will lead to the atrium which leads to the parking garage...

Phew. 

I did a little shopping in town while I was there. I went to World Market for a bar of the soap that Mr. Moon likes, which was introduced to him by May a couple of Christmases ago. It is called "Man Soap" and I love the way it smells. Glen does too. While I was there I picked up a little gift for Lis whom I will see tomorrow. She has an errand in Tallahassee so is driving over for a "hit and run" as she calls it. She's going to meet Lily and Jessie and me for lunch after pottery. Her birthday is on Friday so I wanted to get her a little something-something. 

I ate lunch at the Pitaria because suddenly I was starving. (Yeah, right.) I got the veggie platter as always because I always do and here's what it looked like. 

It's a very decent veggie platter although there's another Mediterranean restaurant down the street that has a better one. But the Pitaria was closer so...

I enjoyed that one a lot and brought home some leftovers too. 

I stopped at a Goodwill on my way home and got two soft short-sleeved T-shirts. I was down to three of those which is rather unbelievable. 

And then I drove home on a road I've never taken before that I can recall which is really weird. The sheriff I was talking to the other day told me that it's the road he'd use to get to Tallahassee if he lived in Lloyd. It branches directly off from the road I live on, and cuts straight through woods and cow pastures to a main highway to town. I did not see one other car on it which is what the sheriff had said- no one uses it. 

So that was pretty exciting, as I am sure you can imagine. 

I haven't done one thing that was of any interest to anyone in the world besides all of that. I mean, after going to the hospital to get a CT scan, everything else is bound to pale in comparison. 
Am I right? 

Pottery tomorrow and on Thursday we buy the log cabin. I don't even know where to start when it comes to getting stuff for that house. I looked around at Goodwill but they didn't have anything I'd want to carry over there. And besides that, the floors are going to be done, things are going to be changed in the kitchen, and one of the bathrooms has to be ripped out and replaced. So it's not time yet to start buying toilet bowl cleaner and frying pans. 
Oh god. 
I really hope that this doesn't turn out to be my season of discontent. Or despair. 

I'm trying. I am really, really trying. It may be a long strange trip though. Y'all coming with me? 
I hope so.

Love...Ms. Moon
