Fickle


My 23 and Me profile was kind of boring. Which, my girlfriend pointed out..."would it only be worth it to you if you found out something was wrong with you?" Good point. I don't know what I was expecting? A ticking clock of how many days I have left? The thing is, it can only test for what it looks for. Seem obvious, but, I learned I'm not a carrier for certain diseases, I don't have the breast or ovarian cancer genes. (they only test for 3, there are far more) It doesn't mean I can't get it, just means the ones they tested for aren't present...The coolest thing about it was that I am, indeed, 2% Nigerian! COOL! I wish I wasn't a boring whitey, so, now, I can claim a skosh of ethnicity, right? Yes, I can.
