I turned 40 on December 3rd, which means I have to get mammograms every year now. I already had a baseline in 2002 because of some family history, so I kind of knew what to expect this time. I wore my "Chicks Rule" shirt, and on the way out of the hospital parking lot, cranked "The Bitch is Back" just to bring the whole experience around in a circular fashion. However, no chocolate or shopping was involved.
My 40+ female friends who are reading this, go schedule your mammograms now if you haven't already. :o)
Edit, 2-17-09: I got the letter today that the exam came out normal, which made me want to find even more empowering music to turn up!
