First, some news: As you may have noticed, a couple of weeks ago<\/a> I had a mammogram, and then last week I got a letter inviting me to come to a specialist in Dachau. There I was stuck into the hilariously named Mammomat<\/a> scanning machine, and had a biopsy, which was sent to a laboratory in Munich and came back cancerous. I’ve got an appointment with an oncologist on July 8 in Freising. Since the weather forecast for Freising is roughly the same as the weather forecast for Hell’s back forty, I plan to spend this week waiting enjoying the local custom of moping around in darkened rooms<\/a>.

Anyway, I might get dramatic about it from time to time but I refuse to make it my whole identity or use it as an ersatz personality. I am definitely using it as an excuse to eat more tacos.

Other than that, I didn’t do much this past week because an old orthopedic issue has resurfaced, and it makes me lazy. And grumpy. So grumpy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Altstadt storks! They had three babies this year.
Two other storks flew over as I was getting my phone out; it turns out storks will try to kill other storks’ babies if they’re left unattended.
Yay, nature.

Salad. I told you this week was boring.
Mostly I just want to complain about the software update on the phone making the evening and indoor pictures blurry.

I am very behind on the Modern Flexagons<\/a>.
This one used cardboard templates<\/a> and hand stitching, like in the 70s (the 1870s), and took 9 one-hour History Channel shows to finish.

Bier Radi!
It’s five bears long, because Americans will use anything except the metric system<\/a>.
