Per usual, I have a multitude of drafts brewing in my mind, and have not intended to abandon this blog. But for those of you not on twitter, a quick update—-
This week offers me two extended final-round interviews for jobs (one of 4 candidates, and one of 2 or 3 candidates after passing phone interviews of 6 candidates, so that feels good even if I don’t get anything, and I’ve got to prepare some presentations that will be a whole new world), and a consultation with a surgeon to probably remove a lump in my breast that has substantially changed from last year (yeah, that doesn’t feel so good, but the internets say it’s a very high probability of being benign). Busy week!
Looking forward to Saturday.

I’ve had my own “it’s-almost-certainly-benign” kind of scare recently, so I know how it feels. And surgery is no little thing. Hang in there — I’ll keep you in my thoughts and my fingers crossed that it remains benign!

Yikes, Dr V! Thanks and sounds like yours came out okay, glad to hear that.

Actually, mine’s still in progress — another Dr. appointment next week (and possibly biopsy, if needed) and I should know for sure — but I’m pretty sanguine about it now. But at first, even though all reputable sources are saying it’s very unlikely that this is something to be super worried about (just something to get taken care of), my mind did race to the scarier what-ifs. It’s hard not to go there.
