Two years ago today, I was diagnosed with cancer. Wow. Tomorrow I see the oncologist for yet another 3 month check up. Soon it will be twice a year checkups, for which I will be grateful. More on that in a few weeks. Today’s funny moment: I was chatting with a good guy friend. [...]

…and due to 2 hours sleep, I”ll have less as the day goes on, so I’m posting early and this one might get interesting. I’m totally stealing this idea from Eden who got it from someone else. Eden is the originator of NaBloPoMo, so if she can do it, I figure it’s ok for me [...]

I had a conversation with my chiropractor on Friday when I was there for my treatment. I told him about the new bed that I’d been saving for. We talked about the style (waterbed/foam) and the price (anything less than $2k is really a good price). I also mentioned that I was looking for a [...]
