Observations - some cute

Just checking in, and getting some pictures going here. Guess I can use my night time energy burst to do something.

Gaining weight in prep for Chemo, and just starting to get some energy. 

And in many ways, I am getting back to where I should have been, living wise, a long time ago. There is a much different perspective.

And I think I have had another first. Sunburned eardrums - I am serious. Pretty obnoxious to say the least. Sarah picked me another 'hat'. Soft as bunny fur and warm. Especially with the new haircut. Forecast is for low 50's by the weekend.

Pack Rat
It starts with baseball cards, and then it never seems to end. And unfortunately, it never does end. Been doing computers so long, any one need a copy of Windows 95 [full legit out of the box] let me know cause I seem to have it all. Plus just about every driver disk, manual and component you might ever want - or need. Let me know, it is yours. Pure 19th century technology.

Really sucks
I suppose what really bites is the control loss. Though really, how much control do we have?And discovering those 'limits' can be drawn out as mine was. Life's choices, of which I've hidden from many, are simply that. A decision - with no guarantee as to the outcome. This world has changed so significantly in my short years. And I suppose living in the past has such great appeal. Such simpler and safer times.

Moustache
This will be the first occasion for anyone to see me less the stash. Grew it my first year in college and never looked back.

Chemo Doc
So, it starts next Wednesday. First round is a three day shot. Six hours on Wednesday, then and hour or so the next two days. Finishing on my Birthday, the 27th. Stars crossing out there somewhere. Then, depending on results and tolerance and all that neat stuff, would do the second round in three weeks. Cisplatin and Etoposide. And I guess this is where I HAVE to end the smoking.
