176th New Thing - Watched Hanna

I didn't have time to post last night, therefore I'm posting this late as this occurred yesterday (Fri 4/13/12).

We watched a movie entitled Hanna with Saoirse Ronan, Eric Bana, and Cate Blanchett , that came out on April 8, 2011. It is European-American action thriller film about a ex-CIA German man (who has a secret) that trains his 16 year old 'daughter' to be a skilled assassin in the forest of northern Finland. When he thought she was ready for her mission to kill a CIA officer (who killed Hanna's mother), he told her to flip a switch, which alerted the CIA their whereabouts. The dad runs away and they are to reunite in Berlin in a few days. Hanna travels through Morocco, Spain, then Germany. All along the route she is being hunted by assassins. As she nears her ultimate mission, Hanna faces the secrets about her existence and unexpected questions about her humanity. It was a crazy, weird, tripy, Euro American movie! IMDB gave it a 6.9 out of 10 and I agree with that rating.

When I was there, the doctor did a biopsy of 1 of the moles on my back (which came back as normal, by the way). The area was healing pretty well until about 2 weeks ago. The area around the wound started getting bigger instead of smaller and oozing. Therefore, I went back to my doctor to check it out. She said I was having an allergic reaction to something, probably the Neosporin . She gave me some new ointment, Vanos , and said I should take Zyrtec until the area starts to get better. Vanos (fluocinonide) Cream is indicated for the relief of the inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of corticosteroid responsive dermatoses in patients. Best results are seen if used twice per day. Zyrtec (cetirizine) is an antihistamine that reduces the effects of natural chemical histamine in the body. Histamine can produce symptoms of sneezing, itching, watery eyes, and runny nose. Zyrtec can be u...

364th New Thing - Ate a Mini Lemon Bites

My co-workers birthday was today so to celebrate they bought her a vanilla cake, a chocolate cake, and mini lemon bites from Costco . I had some chocolate cake and a mini lemon bite. These are made by Upper Crust Bakery . They supply Sam's Club, Starbucks, Costco, Kroger, Whole Foods, and BJ’s Wholesale Club. Both desserts that I ate tasted good. According to the Livestrong Calorie Tracker , 1 mini lemon bite is 130 calories, 19 g carbs, and 1 g protein. What did you do today?
