Excellent! What was the topic?
I judge books by their covers all the time.
I think I started the Chanur series just because of the Michael Whelan covers.
The Mad Gasser of Mattoon!
Tim is going to love this one!
I mean, right? Is that a great title, or what?
College reunion starts tonight... two friends texted me to ask what I'm wearing. Ha! Old patterns -- neither of them has asked me what I'm wearing to a party since college, I'm pretty sure.
And if I might... please send any spare "you got this" ~ma our way today for DH. He's a little nervous about a possible new opportunity, and it would be swell if everything went well.
You got this, JenP's DH! You will nail it.
Last night we had dinner with Lola (the mother of Matilda's friend Isabella). Lola has widely spread Stage 4 cancer.
The very good news is that Lola's finished her first round of chemo and has had the best possible result. 40% reduction of tumors after one round! The primary pancreatic tumor down by 30%. Tumors which were physically visible under her skin no longer visible. Her pain level is down so that she's only taking Tylenol.
Which is why I always say, you just don't know what's going to happen until you have that first round of chemo.
She's not out of the woods by any means. Pancreatic cancer is notoriously stubborn and resistant and she won't be able to expect it to continue at this pace. However, at the very very least she's bought herself a lot more time when I was afraid she wouldn't last to the end of summer. And there's genuine hope she can push this into remission.
So the other big component of the evening was that Matilda and I went with Hannah (Sacred Circle), her daughter, Norah, and Lola brought her daughter Isabella.
Isabella is one of Matilda's closest friends since kindergarten (literally had lunch together every day in Middle School, often by themselves at the Flagpole) and they have not seen each other since spring of 2020 when the first Pandemic lockdown hit.
So that was a very happy reunion as well. I'll share a picture on FB Buffistas group.
Oh, wow, that's really good news, David. More time, especially when the pain is knocked back is amazing, and will send many, many vibes for eventual and long remission. So happy for Matilda and Isabella's reunion, too. Lovely.

WTH? Science isn't part of the regular curriculum?
Mucho ~ma for Jen's DH.
Hope you and your outfit have a great time, Jen.
Great news, David! Hope she continues trending in the right direction! Loved the reunion photo!
