Echoing the ~ma for o-a and JZ dads

---

Health~ma to your dad, Omnis. I understand prostate cancer tends to be one of the slower moving ones.

I'm getting drunk with amyth right now. Gawd, I live living in The Compound.

I am greatly relieved, finally remembering that pancreatic cancer is the nasty one over prostate cancer.

Dear Dude Who Comes Over Every Tuesday To Hang With Joe:
I know - I KNOW - that Dance Moms is a horrible show. However, it is guilty pleasure tv and something I have on in the background while I do homework or whatever because I don't have to pay attention to it. Your smartass, holier-than-thou, denigrating comments on my choice of tv is not appreciated. Every time you see I have it on. Furthermore, I don't appreciate the suggestion that if I go outside, I should walk around the block.

I love you, dude. I really do. But you are starting to piss me off. Knock it off.

Love and sparkles -
Aims

Yeah, Connie, that was exactly the mistake that flipped my shit out big-time when our dad first told us. Just a handful of letters apart, but a huge difference.

Jews really like eggplant and artichokes -- I think there are more recipes for those than for any other vegetable, and by a pretty big margin. Runner-up vegetables are beets and potatoes.

Huh. That sums up so much of the sephardi/ashkenazi cultural difference thing, right there.

(Speaking of: do I remember right that you avoid kitniyot? I always think that can't be easy on a vegan diet. It wasn't easy as an omnivore, and I eventually came to the conclusion that the kitniyot thing wasn't ever going to work for me!)

I don't avoid kitniyot. I tried doing vegan non-kitniyot one year, and I felt like hell. So I have beans, because nuts just aren't enough protein, but I don't have rice.

I am greatly relieved, finally remembering that pancreatic cancer is the nasty one over prostate cancer.

I believe his pancreas got pulled a few years ago when his gall bladder went. Along with some other organ. I forget now. I just remember he lost about 1/4 of his internal organs, and not stomach, large/small intestines, or lungs. I wanna say some of his liver got sliced out too. I dunno. Like I said, his warranty has expired, so all internal organs are showing their age. I wonder if he could buy an extended warranty?? Nah, too late. He had to do that before the first wore out.

Tons of ~ma for the dads of JZ and omnis.

The living room walls are all washed and ready to be painted and my father-in-law painted away all of the water stains in the inside of our closets (there is no longer a leak in them but they had never been treated with kilz to get rid of the stains and possible mold). Up next is filling in the holes in the walls. We also met with our oil company today to get a plan for our boiler. These are not the kind of things I ever thought I would find this exciting, but it is so much fun to make this house ours.

Much health~ma for the prostate cancer-fightin' dads of JZ and omnis. Like Pix said, it's one of the most treatable cancers, but, you know, it's still cancer, and fuck cancer.
