Erin! I've got your book, but what with everything happening last week, I didn't get over to the post office to mail it. I'll make sure to get it out this week, I swear!
I got stupid. The money was too good.

Although, I was excited to see Chloe's collection, too, and it was way too formal for me.
I was bored by Chloe's collection. If you listen to Tim's podcast for that episode (and I really recommend them in general--he gives a lot of backstage dish), it seems like she won by default because they didn't want to give it to Santino. He says that Kara's collection was way better than any of the three finalists. Because she knew she was out, she really took risks.

Thanks for asking Cindy. She's fine. She was basically up and about (within reason) a week or so after her hysterectomy (some new high tech robot surgery at Dana Farber), which is just incredible to me. Since she was stage 1A, she doesn't need chemo or radiation. And so far she's had no real syptoms from her instant menopause. Amazing.
The doctors were actually very optimistic the whole time, so it shouldn't be too surprising, but the initial diagnosis just took us to a really scary "OMG our mother died of this" place for a while.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That's great news, megan.
Less good news for you, ita.
I love a snarky chimneysweep!
I have bangladeshi snack mix which I think will be my dinner, and I'm only working one more day this week. Life is not bad.

So you decided to go up to the wedding on Thursday, Jesse?

Indeed I did. I looked at my short to-do list, and the office that was still empty today, and said screw this mess.

Since she was stage 1A, she doesn't need chemo or radiation. And so far she's had no real syptoms from her instant menopause. Amazing.This is terrific. And Dana Farber is, too. I think I'd been imagining she had breast cancer, so I didn't realize the surgery was a hysterectomy. That's a great recovery.

It's a horrible place to go, but how could you not, if you lost your mom to the same thing. The word is scary enough, although it is freaking amazing that just in our life time, hearing "cancer" doesn't have to mean what it once did. I'm so glad her prognosis is so great.
