I’m elabaratory!

So, there was this guy who had to get an MRI every 6 months to watch his brain tumor. One time they noticed it had started growing again, so they gamma-knifed it. And then waiting. And more 6 monthly MRIs. After 18 months they noticed it hadn’t changed, which is a very good thing. And now he does not have to go back for 2 years. Which is hella awesome.

^ Is about Jake, just in case you didn’t know 🙂

Today I did fun things, like get travel insurance and book our ride to the airport next Friday. That’s in like… 11 days. Oh yeah. Not much I can do at this point in preparation, there are things to do next week by about Wednesday, and there are things for this Friday, and there is cleaning… but that is nothing to do right now really. Hopefully I get my package tomorrow, then I have something to stop me going stircrazy. (ooh, I checked amazon and it says it has been ‘arrival scanned’ in this town, so that’s almost a definite that it will show up tomorrow. Woot!)

I cannot stop being thirsty.

On our long walk today (we took the videos back to the store, it was such a long walk that it was dark when we got back) I got stuck on a rant about people mispronouncing other people’s names. Because I got a letter I asked Russ (Jake’s boss, our landlord) to write for me, and he called me Sara. Which is annoying, but not as annoying as people who call me Sara. I wish I could write in the way that shows how that is pronounced different to Sarah. It also bugs me when we watch Iron Chef and people call Alton Brown "all-ton"… I just don’t get why people don’t pronounce people’s names the way that person pronounces their name. I would understand someone who didn’t know, but once you know, that’s just silly and a tad disrespectful in my eyes.

Tv is making donuts. I want donuts. Hot jam donuts. I get some when we go to the zoo, yes?

title: it’s amusing, because Jake thought I called myself a laboratory. Or an e-laboratory. Mmm… electronic.
