Doctor Who

Well, I had an appointment with Dana-Farber today, but I had to cancel it. We have an unnounced inspection and I have to be here for it, considering I'm part of QA.

No scans were scheduled, just a visit to the doctor so he can look at me and tell me I look fine. It's rescheduled for April 11th.

Not too much going on otherwise. My ass still hurts a little, the bump has gone down significantly, but is still there.

Other than that, all's quiet on the Western Front.

Later!

Ass cancer??

My butt has been hurting for a week now from the injection. Today, I just noticed that the injection site now has a hard lump around it. There are no doctors in the office to call, so I have to wait until Monday. Figures.

I have to laugh because it seems like I have no problems talking about my butt, injections, boobs, whatever. I have no shame anymore talking about this stuff, I just put it out there. It just cracks me up.

I was just joking about the ass cancer, by the way! :) That's for my mom, so she doesn't worry and call me all upset!

Speaking of mom, we are going over there for Easter. Spend some quality family time with...the family! La Famiglia!

Happy Easter everyone! Write to you soon!

Lupron

Got my first injection of Lupron on Friday night. It is to be given intramuscularly...in other words, I got a shot in the ass. And man, that spot on my ass hurt for 3 days after. I have attached a picture of the lovely injection that I will be getting every month. The picture just doesn't do it justice.


The needle itself is about 2.5" long. I'm REALLY beginning to hate needles.

I don't feel anything different. The doctor said that I might feel an increase of bone/joint pain, which is good. I haven't felt that yet. I hope it's working. I get so damn paranoid about these things. If he says that most people feel this, I expect to feel it, and if I don't, I worry that it's not working. It's really hard being me. [Sigh]

I've been following the story on the (former) New York Govenor Eliot Spitzer. The reports say that he didn't wear condoms. Umm, I have to comment on this, I can't let this go by without saying something! She's a prostitute...a WHORE (I just like saying that!)...you are not the first guy...you don't know where she's been...why the HELL wouldn't you wear a condom? You might as well stick your piece into the mouth of a komodo dragon. Except for the teeth, it's pretty much the same!! OMG! Nasty! LOL, I crack myself up!

Are any of you on Facebook? If so, I have a page, feel free to add me as a friend! Here's the website: http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=680345138

Well, that's it from crazyville.

Happy St. Patty's Day! Today, everyone's Irish! I'm wearing my green, are you?

Snakes...why did it have to be snakes?

I don't know if you all know, but Thom and I have had a pet snake for about 15, maybe 16 years. Well, our pet snake passed over the weekend. Don't know why. Maybe not the most affectionate pet in the world, but she would come up to our face when we held her and flick her tongue as if to say, "Hello there!" When I had longer hair and could put it up in a ponytail, I would wrap her around it and go along doing what it was I had to do, and she was more than content to be there.

I'm sad, it's hard to have something for so long and then...not. But she was a very docile, sweet snake and she will be missed.

Bye Bye Phee.
