Sounds scary, RTC, especially when they recommend a radical now a days. I hope that it turns out OK.

It still means nothing. Now it's just down to games of probability, continued watchfulness, and a mother that is stubborn as all hell.
In her words and mine:
It is what it is.
It is indeed. I'm more glad than ever that I decided turned down the job in the bay area. A bus and train home is much easier to do on a whim than a cross country flight.

Thanks guys and gals.
Has anyone heard from lith in a while? The last I remember was his wife was having some medical issues. I just thought of the pic of him flying across the finish line during the cross race and thought of him. MDCV?

Just renewed my racing license. Might as well. It's a long season and I'm back training again, so I'll probably get some racing in.

The rep is also a promoter and on the promoters board that came up with this. The promoters board is also the Local Association, and they control the website forum where most of the dialogue happens and regularly delete stuff they don't like.
And they control my downgrade which, given my results, is unlikely to happen. In any case I'd have to go down to a 3 to have a class at most events. That really won't happen.

Athens GA has a pretty good scene. I'll give you a free kit to ride for us.

VW's been pretty good about support for it, being agressive on the recalls and servicing.
I think that she'd go for the Tdi if she was looking now.... she keeps complaining about the R32s gas mileage even though she works at home 4 days out of 5 and it's only 1mpg less than I get in the MS3.

Had a nice brunch with a friend and explored around boston public library. Beautiful.
Came home to this message from mi madre.

Hi RTC,
My biopsy came back with more DCIS in a different spot in the right breast. And the Dr is recommending a mastectomey.
I am not convinced of that. ( though I am NOT the Doctor!) as I think it is too drastic a measure.
I recently read about this research being done in U Penn.. I just wrote to the Dr there for being considered for this trial..
Can you check this out for me and tell me what you think...
https://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/sh...+and+PA&rank=1
Call me when you get a chance.
Mom.

Her aunt died of breast cancer that metastasized to, well, everywhere...
That was about 2 years ago, so it's still fresh in all our minds. She just doesn't want them to take a really aggressive approach to it because now the course is radiation-->mastectomy if that doesn't work out perfectly.

The world is about to end in the Southeast. If we pull through I'll see you all tomorrow after work.
5-6 inches of snow expected. I can only assume everyone will be dead by this time tomorrow.
