Boy does cancer suck. It tries to suck the life out of you. So, you have a recurrance with cancer and you say to yourself, "I'm really going to live now." That's a great thought, and I'm doing my best to, except that all of the problems that you had before are now multiplied. My insides are screwed up, I am finally feeling a little bit better after a week of throwing up, and today, when I came in from stacking some wood my hair was falling out in clumps. It kind of reminded me of the movie The Fly when Jeff Goldblum is watching his body change. I'm guessing I have maybe two more treatments before I have to shave my head completely. I did that once in 10th grade...never liked it much. But it's only hair and that is really the least of my problems...

Today was a good day overall. Tomstang and I unburried the cars from the massive snowstorm that moved in over the weekend. Then we went over to Kristen and Kevin's for the Superbowl. It was great to hang out with everyone, and it felt good to eat. Funny how when you are going through chemotherapy, you want to eat so badly, but just can't. Anyway, it was good to see the Saint's win one...Browns are next (stop laughing-it could happen).

Wendy and Tom and I came back, put the kids to bed and watched some TV. Some show about how a CEO of Waste Management went undercover and worked with some of the "little ones" in the company so that he could get a feel for what they did, and how to make the company more efficient. Pretty interesting. The end of the recording got cut off, but Wendy told me that the lady that had cancer and was doing the job of 4 people, was given a raise 3X her salary. She had invited the new-comer (CEO) to dinner at her house with her family. She was a hard worker, honest, real...

Lesson for Coop and Knox: You never know who you are talking to in the world. Treat everyone with dignity and respect.

Smile, today could be your last.
