Paging Dr. Roengten

A short day at work - the morning began with our group meeting one of the South American business development managers who specializes in undersea products. Spent most of the day on expense reports and scheduling teleconferences. I left in the early afternoon to attend a student's master's thesis proposal. He had an outstanding presentation; he was one of my students during his undergrad work and it's been fun watching him graduate, get a job, return to school and grow as a scientist.

One of the members of his committee works in the chemistry department and we had a chance to get introduced; we have several areas of common interest and will meet after the semester to discuss collaborating. Our student is working on dye-sensitive solar cells and there is some good work that can be done in that area.

Tomorrow I'm scheduled for a chest x-ray as the doctor suspects pneumonia. That would be a first for me. I hope I can download the image, but I suspect Kaiser won't allow that - they didn't upload my broken finger, the bastards.

I have an old chest x-ray somewhere, in a non-digitized form. It's good fun to look at it once in a while and think: those are my insides! Woooo!

I hope you don't have pneumonia and that they let you keep the x-ray.

Surely you can receive a copy if you ask. After all, I think it belongs to you.

SH! Watch out for the pneumonia - nearly finished me off last winter.

Take care of yourself a bit, will you, damnit?

And - when are you coming this way, hmmm?
