I made my first appointment to have a mammogram. I've been putting it off since I turned forty in April for obvious reasons. With a coworker being diagnosed with breast cancer and it being Breast Awareness Month (as if they aren't made aware of enough) I figured it was time.

It's amazing how we get so paranoid about something that's so normal. The possibility of something being found is enough to make us not want to check. I'm fine until I'm coughing up blood... then maybe I'll go in for a check up. I wonder if that's the American way or just people in general. Be it fear or laziness... It's time to squish these babies. Statement of the day:

My Boss: "It's too bad we can't make men squish their penis like that for tests."

Angry much?

It's not the American way. I hear my female friends say the same things in Sweden. And no worry, I can squish too if that feels better. *grin*

I'll let you know on Friday. *wink*
