Ok, why am I so excited for the radiology appt for you, JenP? Oh, right. From what I have seen, s'not quite so unpleasant a treatment as the chemo. Vibing for you, too.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

What is even happening?
I'm going in this morning for my set-up appt. with the radiologist. Should be fairly low-key. And this means no more chemo for the next couple of months.
All the best, Jen! I hope it all goes well.

Hi, ya'll, and thanks. Yes, Laura, I have an amazing team of medical professionals. My oncologist? Loves carrots. And I'd venture that the rest of them do, too.
Oh, visiting Anne in St. L - fun!
ETA:
No chemo for a while is yay, right Jen? Yay!
I'm definitely yay about it. Breaks are good.

I have two cats doing their best vulture imitations in my direction. I don't even have any food. I suspect they are willing me to get up and get them some, though.

Having a minor freak-out. Need to just hold onto feelings till therapy this afternoon. I don't want to page my therapist this morning when I'm gonna see her in a few hours. I can do this.
But, in trying to vent a little, and maybe take mom's mind off of some stuff, I called and vented. I think I hurt her feelings.
I suck.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Oh, sweetie. BTDT with the whole calling mom out of desperate need to connect and vent and inadvertently saying something wounding, and all the guilt. No fun at all. That's what sucks, not you. You (you know the drill already) don't suck. You've had a horrendous past few weeks and, all things considered, you're considerably more functional than 99% of the planet would be under the circumstances. You're also entitled, like 100% of the planet, to make a mistake or say the wrong thing every now and then without crucifying yourself for it.
Thinking good thoughts for you and your mom today.

Thanks, all. It'll be ok. It's just gonna be a stressful day.
And, just as I was about to jump in the shower, Not!Emily, or possibly his girlfriend, jumped in. Ugh.
