   ~~Breathe~~~ I guess I broke.   In half. Don't worry, I've pulled myself together...somewhat.  :) I called the doctor's office this morning and spoke with Dr. G.'s medical assistant.  I needed some information about that fender-bender Liz and I had last summer - was filling o...

   Seems like every single time I turn around something else has to come along to piss on me!!! My doctor's office called this morning.  My cholesterol is still too high.  I was put on a low dose Statin drug a few months ago - against my will - and it has done NOTHING to lower…
