Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Week 2 of kicking cancer's ass began this morning. Tim is already noticing that some foods are tasting different, thanks to the radiation (since it's basically a controlled burn inside his mouth 5 days a week for 7 weeks). But since he isn't having any physical difficulty eating (yet), he declared that last week was Fat Tim Week 1 and this week is Fat Tim Week 2, while he adds cheese and butter and avocado to everything and also has dessert every day, to try and add some weight as a buffer for when he starts to lose some weight (though we have strategies to try to minimize that, too).

Saturday night we went to a German restaurant (at Tim's request) with his brother and SiL, and Tim chowed down Deutschland style. (Side note: now that I'm on Zepbound, when we go out to eat it hits me how large restaurant portions truly are. I mean, I knew that before, but when my appetite is curbed, the plate full of food just seems comically large, as opposed to just "huh, that seems like a lot." I feel like I'll be eating the leftovers all week.)

Our wings are not tired.

Excellent plan.

Yes, even before the shots I found most meals out were 2-3 portions. Now I just consider that most of it is going home before I order and choose something that keeps. IOW, no more salads that will wilt.

Always Anti-fascist!

I always take stuff home/ have leftovers when I eat out. Very rough day yesterday. I wanted time with Victor's book, but not because my gut was having a mutiny. Still, it was nice to know a Buffista was there for me, in a sense.
