Hey - That One Looks Like Mickey Mouse

Did you ever look at clouds as a child (or maybe an adult) and decide one looks like a shape or figure? Well now I can do the same thing with bruises. I'm not sure if it was the walking yesterday or just part of the normal healing process but I now have a new bruise on my right leg. If I had to describe it, I would say it looks like the state of California (including mountains and rivers). I'm not sure if there is any kind of connection but it makes me wonder if I should have tried to have my ablation in Rhode Island or maybe the District of Columbia. The EP nurse did tell me some people bruise all the way down to their knee. Would that be considered a Continental bruise? In any case we'll see how many more states join the Union so to speak.

Today is our last full day in California. We plan to take the rental car for another spin and use up as much of the pre-paid gas as possible. I'm not sure if this is out of principle or because we want to see more snow-free landscape before returning to Michigan (where there is a winter storm watch in effect for the time we are supposed to be arriving tomorrow). Until next time...
