Hmmm… Maybe I should just dedicate my blog to pictures of Twist I take from my TV!
I haven’t had anything to post. I’m sorry. It’s been a hectic past several weeks. First there was my cancer scare and lately I’ve been having to take my mom back and forth to the Saint Paul’s Hospital psych ward. I just haven’t had time to sort out my thoughts but I have been writing a lot in my Sad Feelings Journal. Sigh… Maybe I should try praying again.

Precious is my friend. She, like me, is also a Cancer-Scare Survivor… When we found out today that I don’t have cancer we decided to go celebrate at Pizza Hut. We couldn’t find much information online about cancer-scare survivors and support for people like us but we decided, if nothing else, we need a ribbon too. We’ve decided that the cancer-scare survivors’ ribbon...

I don't have the "Big C."
Nov 17, 2011

A hot, young, man-doctor, Dr. Tran, then felt me up just to make sure—there were no...

I've got the "Big C".
Nov 14, 2011
I had my diagnostic ultrasound today. The technician performing it refused to give me her professional opinion of how she thought my breast tissue looked but I’ve already assumed the worst. I have a follow up appointment this Thursday (today is Monday) to discuss the results. In the meantime, here are the lyrics to Michael Jackson’s “Gone Too...

Conrad Murray
Nov 7, 2011
No one was more devastated when Michael Jackson died than I was. No One. I’ve been waiting for this day for so long now — justice for MJ — and when I heard that the verdict had finally come in on Conrad Murray I got to the courthouse faster than you can say “Wow, that’s fast!”
Here is the scene at the British Columbia Supreme Court as soon as the...

I'm convinced I'm dying
Nov 5, 2011
For people:
I’m convinced I’m dying and I have not understood God yet. In lieu of flowers, please donate to a college fund set up for my only begotten son, Chief. At my eulogy please note: I am not a monotheist or a polytheist or a deist or a pantheist. I am not a Christian or anything Abrahamic. I am NOT a Mormon, despite what my baptismal certificate says. I am not...
