The probability of two people, a couple, being diagnosed and treated for four cancers {two each} by the age of sixty and currently still alive is not high. Especially given one of those cancers is a rare incurable one. So, when I say that we are more experienced with cancer than average, I am not lying nor bragging. It is possible that we might add a fifth cancer to the list soon. There is no news yet on the lung CT scans. As a precaution I have entered the Euromillions draw for tonight.

I do not want a full house or a royal flush.

I can generally stave off conclusion longer than most and am not overly prone to catastrophising. Being in a vacuum is not entirely to my liking. I can wait until a week Friday when we have a scheduled GP appointment. One of my “coping” mechanisms is investigation and learning. I read around the subject as preparation and will go to the length consistent with my academic background in a prior incarnation {this life}. One can add two and two and come up with three, but I have not. I am as ever curious. I have learned a fair bit, enough to worry a doctor.

In the social security office today, the woman asked me if I had a smartphone. I said yes but that I do not use it. I said that I was a little Jurassic. She suggested downloading an “application”, whatever one of those is, to apply for a new social security card. I have found a new Crusade. That is to demand ways of doing things which do not use satanic smartphones or demonic applications. That way I will not be subject to Trumpian tariffs on semiconductors.

I have been thinking about getting a dumb-phone as a protest.

The French administration system even frustrates the French. They could save shit loads of money and significantly reduce the budget deficit by getting doggy-boy Musk to slash and burn. However, the unemployment levels would soar. The national mental heath and blood pressure levels would ameliorate.

I / we are in a bit of a limbo, which is an odd state for spring.

I speculated that this year would be a minus nine, lack of completion, year. The various wars are no where near resolution and will drag on for months despite the show-boating efforts of the orange very stable genius.

Our limbo is a comfortable one. So far there are no cluster bombs falling on Brittany.

There is food and water and heating.

Thanks to the four cancer status our pharmacy is well stocked.

Hmnn…
