Fred: It's the pictures in my mind that are getting me. It's like being stuck in a really bad movie with those Clockwork Orange clampy things on my eyeballs. Wesley: Why imagine? Reality's disturbing enough.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

In extremely minor news: I did not realize it was going to be hot today and did not drag my fan out to the living room to point at me while I work. I could, theoretically, go get it now but it would be so much easier to just go and lie down in front of the fan where it is. I'm most likely going to do neither of those, just continue to work while drenched in my own sweat until EOD because there is always one more thing that I'll just finish first

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

I did radiation 5 times a week for 8 weeks. And when you first hear it, it does sound like a million billion. But it does go by really fast. And I did chemo every other week for...I wanna say 16 weeks. It also flies by. He's probably on a different flavor of chemo than I was, but really common things across all of us at infusion were =cold= def pack a jacket, and they'll have blankets, but just those crappy hospital ones, so you might want to pack any soft/special/favorite type blanket. And snacks. They'll have some, but if there's something particular he's fond of, bring some.

I wish Tim the best. And I'm so sorry that he has now joined this crappy club. I hope it's in his rearview super-soon.

Punishingly Intricate

Hope the weeks fly and the side effects aren’t too onerous for Tim. Curing the motherfucker (er the cancer not Tim) is a great outcome!
