It Breaks My Heart
It breaks my heart that I am now going to have to give up my affair with Batman. I always did like that utility belt...
I successfully completed my CT scan yesterday and didn't get beamed off to some other solar system where I would be threatened by cannibalistic Wookies which was nice. As I got up from the machine I informed my CT tech that I felt like I had just participated in a Sci-Fi T.V. episode and she laughed saying she gets that a lot. What I appreciated was the fact that I didn't have to hold my breath. She told me not to move, but that I could continue to breathe; music to my ears.
I also asked her if I would get to see the results and she said that typically these things were always handled electronically now. "Oh, but I've never had one before." She asked me if I'd ever had a CT before and I said no and that's why I was interested in seeing what it looked like. After the procedure she came out of the room that protects them from the radiation or whatever and let me tell you she was beaming. She said that after speaking with her colleagues they thought it would be a good idea to send a set of films with me to take to my follow-up visit and if my doctor didn't need them (since he gets electronic files), I could keep them. YEA!! I GOT TO SEE MY INSIDES AND WAS WILLING TO SHOW THEM TO ANYONE INTERESTED!!
This is where my affair with Batman comes into play. Seriously people, the picture of a slice of my spinal column sure looked like the body of a bat with the head of a human. Hence Jason asking me to stick strictly to all human contact, no more half human half creature items. I guess that means no more Centaur either. Yes we are fully aware that Batman is all human, but it was a joke. Get over it!
I guess that's it. I would tell you more about the results of my CT, but hey I don't know yet. I don't go to the doctor again until the 20th of July. Personally, I thought my insides looked all screwed up, but maybe I'm normal. It could happen. Oh mom, remind me to show you the film again that had a strange blob on it. At one point during lunch and examination of my films, my mom swore they took a picture of my butt. Well, I do have a few pictures that have a strange blob looking thing in them and maybe they took a picture of an ovary. I felt a little violated, like they were getting just a bit too personal; but hey maybe I'm just oversensitive.
