Special K

I have to admit, I'm running out of cereals.

Hooray! We have successfully made it to Rochester, MN, home of the world-renowned Mayo Clinic. Our hotel is right across the street from St. Mary's Hospital...which I thought was Mayo. Got a little too excited there.

Anyway, six hours on the road and only a few back spasms! Yay! This has been my longest "active" day...probably since Christmas Eve. I'm happy to be awake enough to write this now.

My eyes were (are) *super* sensitive today. It was overcast the whole way up, but I wore sunglasses because everything seemed (seems) so bright. I kept trying to yawn to make my eyes water, no such luck. Dry, itchy, burning-feeling, but a little relief once it was dark.

Mom is putting forth an Olympic effort, organizing my mountains of blood tests. You know, Chuck, she's been training for this event her entire life. Is that so? Yes, super-mom and butt-kicking attorney will need to be at her best to compete with these seasoned doctors. Did you know she's been studying "House" screenplays? I'm not surprised. Nothing can stop this mom! Will she win the gold? Only time will tell, Jody. Back to you, Vic.

Wow, I am really out of it. I consider it an act of public service that I am not pursuing a career in comedy. That's how much I love my fellow man.

good night,

p.s. 7:15am tomorrow! Ten hours...YES!
