Todays the day

"When I told my doctor I couldn't afford an operation, he offered to touch-up my X-rays."
- Henny Youngman

Today is the day! Not in a good way. I've been waiting for my MRI appointment for over a month plus and it's finally here. 

I find I'm worried about different things now. It's more about having the dyes and such injected a few times and honestly the thought of them actually finding something. It's nice to know that I have a doctor who doesn't let things go and wants to make sure everything is alright but the thought of having someone pretty much take a fine tooth comb over my brain looking for something is a little disturbing. 

The thought of having something wrong with your body is upsetting but the majority of the time you know you can deal. Why is the brain a little more scary? Maybe its because it is a reinforced case thats hard to protect your smoochy brain matter from outside things. I don't want to be cracked open like a nut, thank ya very much.

Thankfully though, everything is going to be fine and we won't have to worry about the nut cracker scenario. 

Trev will be taking the afternoon off to drive me to work, pick me up and then take me to the appointment so that takes some stress off of today. At first I was going to drive myself and everything but I think this is a better move. It'll be nice to know that he's there if I need him.

On a more positive note, tonight is Richardo's Bachelor party so Trev will be heading in that direction towards dinner time to have supper, go to a hockey game and what not. I will be joining up with Lindsay after work and we'll have dinner alone together which will be nice because we haven't done that in forever.

Now, off to the shower I go! Between the weather and the no metal situation today I don't have to spend a lot of time doing my hair. Big thumbs up on that.

Today is a new day, with the chance to be a great day.
