Rambling....

When people say "You look great!" do you think that means, "Wow, you don't look as bad as I expected"...?

I was supposed to have a photo shoot with my bald head tonight. I wasn't really prepared, so I was kinda relieved we had to cancel/need to reschedule.

My sister-in-law, Tracy, is in town for the 3 Day Walk for the Cure. She and my dear friend, Cyndi are headed to Denver tonight for the early start tomorrow morning. I wish them: not too much heat, no blisters and 3 days of pink comraderie. Go Team Pink Dragonfly!!

My eyebrows are almost gone. :(

I spent full price on 2 dresses yesterday and am feeling kinda guilty about it.... especially since hubby isn't blown away by one of them. I shouldn't care, but wondering to myself if I should return it.

My mama comes into town in a few weeks. Sometimes a girl just needs her mama.

I still haven't figured out cancer etiquette. I probably shouldn't blurt out, "I have cancer!" to everyone who looks at me funny. It's not fair to put that uncomfortable feeling off me and onto them. How selfish of me.

I have to take steroids the day before chemo, I took 2 this morning. They leave a funny taste in my mouth. Blaaaahhhch! Plus, I'm starting to look like Arnold Schwarzenager. Can you tell? My muscles are getting large.... wait, those aren't muscles. I should probably lay off the brownies.

I miss having a glass of wine in the evenings.

My TV addiction is slowly going from HGTV to Food Network. Diners, Drive-In's and Dives visited a cool spot in Fairhope, AL the other day and I've been there before!

Ok. I'm supposed to be napping right now, but I think the steroids have me amped up.... or is that the cupcake I just ate?

Does anyone even read this blog anymore?

  1. I'm reading! Keep writing! I too enjoy Diners Drive-Ins and Dives as a guilty pleasure, despite the fact that (or maybe because) Guy Fieri is a complete tool. I wish we had one of those places that does 2-lb cheeseburgers or 5-lb burritos in Boulder. It's vicarious eating through TV.

  2. I am reading too! Tell me about these dresses. Color? Style? For everyday wear or a special occasions? I say you can never have too many cute dresses!

  5. Yes, when people say "You look great!" they usually do mean "Wow, you don't look as bad as I expected."

    In your case, however, it's true. You always were, and still are, a beautiful woman. Remember Persis Kambahta from the first "Star Trek" movie? Totally bald, totally beautiful, totally hot. That's you, but quesier.

    And tell Mr. Tucker not to worry. First, I'm happily married and not hitting on you while you're feeling down. Second, I'm old and fat and sort of grumpy, and there's no chance you'd go for it if I did.

    Bit of advice, though: There are better ways to lose weight than getting cancer and going through chemo, Susan.
