FUCK CANCER!
Mal: So we run. Nandi: I understand, Captain Reynolds. You have your people to think of, same as me. And this ain't your fight. Mal: Don't believe you do understand, Nandi. I said 'we run'. We.

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

Fuck cancer, indeed. I hope she's gotten several opinions, because there are drugs that can vastly slow the growth of some types of metastasized breast cancer.
There is no right thing to say, except, as DJ says, variations on "that sucks" and avoiding any possible implication that there are any blessings in disguise involved. Tell her she can vent about anything to you, because sometimes you want to complain, but not to the people who see you all the time.

Thanks, Ginger. She's been fighting for three years, and from what I heard the cancer has just spread too far at this point. I believe she has had very good doctors.

I think in protest we should have the zodiac sign changed.
Is Pi Day today?
Is tomorrow, but is no work tomorrow (yay), so pi today. Me and a co-worker teamed up on our contributions: I made a pie with the top crust looking like the Aperture Science logo, and he wrote "The cake is a lie" in frosting on his pie.

hmm. the zodiac sign is good. especially with some old bay and a nice pot of hot water. it's the name of the sign that's related to something what deserves a round of being assed in the ear.

Mmm, pi day. I think I will convince my friend to make a pie tomorrow...
Sadly, I am feeling like complete SHIT today. I got in (several hours late last night) and was like "Um, can our first and only stop on the way home be a pharmacy or target? To get cough syrup? And cough drops?" And now I have used up all her kleenex, and slept most of the day (poorly, because people were...doing bizarre loud things in the hallway, I don't know what. And because of jetlag). And my head hurts. But I really really really want to see all my old coworkers who are getting togehter (another old coworker is also in town, from Colorado, I timed my trip to overlap hers). So I will get off the couch and leave the apartment and try to look less deathly. But BLAH, this is NOT what I had in mind for vacation!

All is well that ends in pizza.
It seems vacation illness is the In thing in the last year.

Nail Clippers aid jailbreak in Canada.
Six prisoners in Canada used nail clippers and other makeshift instruments to break out of prison.
While fellow inmates blocked the guards' view, they were able to dig through to an outer wall, which they then scaled to escape.
They were later recaptured and said they never expected to get away with it but the work gave them something to do.
Write out the fact that four were facing murder charges, and you could have a wacky caper comedy movie.
