Blog Entry 195 of 216 The Lakewood Zit Journal
A couple of weeks ago, I got a zit. It’s the first one I can remember having since 1967. And it would appear on the end of my nose on a night I had an appointment to model at a photography gallery. I can’t get that zit off my mind. So I’ve decided to immortalize it with a journal. All the old stuff is still in here but, starting Memorial Day, May 26, 2008, new stuff will begin to arrive. I’ve been practicing my typing so I’m ready to crank it out on the screen and blog it directly to your living room, anywhere in the world. So sit back. This is the real thing. This is The Lakewood Zit Journal.

Not everything in life goes right. Even after 70 years, I sometimes have a hard time remembering that.

Yesterday, my oldest daughter, Audrey, had surgery in San Diego for the removal of breast cancer.

Since I first heard about the cancer a couple of weeks ago, I've heard a number of stories about how it would, could, and should be treated and a cartful of theories about the results. That's the important thing, right? The results.

She was somewhat awake through the two hour surgery. I know the feeling from having cataracts removed. My ex was there to be with her and take her home. It helps if you're mom is a RN with an IQ in the top one percentile, right?

Audrey is one of the 45 plus million people who works a regular job but is still without medical insurance. But I know she is being taken care of as if she were a queen.
