Bed Bugs

Well that catches people attention, eh?  Over the Spring I became obsessed with thinking the hotel we stayed at in Orlando had bed bugs.  I called the hotel with little response.  I called to have my home inspected.  I bought this crazy expensive mattress and box spring wrap for my very expensive mattress.  I went to the doctor.  And lost hours of sleep on the internet reading all I could on the subject.
That is when the internet really can get in the way of your peace of mind.
Safe to say, the same thing has happened with the saddle sores.  What is it is really just chafing?  Should I cut back on my running?  What if it's like a jock itch with a bacteria or something festering?  Should I stop swimming - OK I actually have not been swimming...  And there is no festering for those of you that just gagged on that comment....  But this how the mind starts to race...  I even got to the point of remembering my dermatologist discussing that you can get skin cancer even on the unexposed body parts....
YES - just obsessed....  We have talked about the beets in my diet scare obsession, have we not?
So with this too... I am going to go to the doctor... 
I need to go back to the old school approach - simple solutions and let it rides its course.  I did that with my stomach.. OK I was close on that one and will ask about that tomorrow but let it ride its course...
So today I ran.  And that is about it for physical activity.
The menu has not changed - blueberry smoothie, lentils and squash, salad, roasted brussel sprouts, onions and mushrooms...  Stopped eating with the hopes of getting a fasting blood test of my cholesterol while I am at it tomorrow.  Not sure the lastest approach to health care will allow that but...
Oh I did have a diet pepsi today and some pistachios.
the scale looked better this morning than it has in a while - phew...
gonna spend the rest of the evening catching up on some tv - The Following, Suits or White Collar???
and trying out some new work software...
