In my quest to actually keep to my resolutions this year, I've made all my doctors' appointments and kept to them. The trip to the optometrist was interesting (and I got some cool pics out of it). The trip to the dentist was a little painful, but taking the xrays was actually kinda fun. Diagnosis happens next week (ouch!). Yesterday I saw the doctor who might become my primary care physician. I'm not sure yet. I'll have to think about it.

She's Russian. Her nurses are Russian. Every patient in that office was Russian. More than half of the notices and signs on the walls were in Russian. I was the youngest person in there, and the only one who didn't speak Russian fluently. It was an interesting experience.

What was more interesting, though, was the bus ride back downtown to get on BART. There was the guy who felt compelled to push past me to get out, even though there was a door directly behind him. The woman who carried on an animated conversation with the bus driver, in which both of them were getting themselves all worked up about some people. The catfight she almost started with another passenger who sat next to her.

Definitely worth $1.
