Tuesday, 7 June 2016

I slept a little weirdly during the latter part of the night and got up quite late. I had to fast for my ultrasound, so I couldn't eat or drink anything other than a glass of water. I got quite a bit of small busywork done, though, before catching the bus to go to my ultrasound appointment at the main Maccabi office. As I walked from the bus stop to Maccabi, I shot today's pic of the day, which shows what eventually happens to the Sdom apples. Notice the beautiful bugs enjoying themselves:
The ultrasound went smoothly without any problems at all. Afterwards, I walked to a nearby place and had falafel, salatim, and Coke Zero for a leisurely early lunch. I also browsed through a copy of Yediot Akharanot, a popular Israeli newspaper. On the editorial page, I found this funny cartoon. The woman says, "Where have you been? I've been looking for you all day!" The man answers, "I sold a kidney to pay for the kids' summer camps.":

After that, I did a couple of other errands in the area and then took another bus back home, having bought a pass for the day on my first ride.

I contacted the Assuta Hospital to schedule an appointment for the MRI that the oncologist said I should have. Then I forwarded the paperwork to them via email. They already tried to call me, but I was in my first lesson. They then called me again later, but there is an error on the payment form regarding the type of MRI needed. So I have written a note online to my family doctor to get it corrected.

I taught 5 units of Berlitz lesson today: 2:45-3:30, 5:30-7:00, and 7:00-8:30. After the first class, I ate a bit more to make up for not having had any breakfast.

Despite mostly riding buses today (because it continues to be a little hot for walking in the middle of the day), I still walked 2.35 kilometers.
