I go in at least once a year for a screening.  Never a bad idea.  A friend just had a mole removed that tested positive for melanoma; thankfully it was early and prognosis is good.

I should probably start doing that.

It took me longer to come to that conclusion than it should have.  It took having kids to realize being "irresponsible" or "tough" is not a good reason to "not worry about it".  I've always been careless with the sun (I grew up in rural Nebraska), and thought sunscreen on the face was dumb.   Now I have freckles/moles on my temples where my cap didn't cover.  Not something I want to mess with anymore...
