I like how my friend has this cancer thing of hers all figured out.
She asked the oncology nurse giving her the chemo if she could drink. Not much, just a glass of wine now and then or a margarita when she goes out with the girls.
A very important question.
And now she has it all mapped out in her head. She was trying to figure out how we'd fit in a margarita for my birthday with her chemo/booze schedule and found that it would be perfect to go out for a margarita the Friday after my 48th. And so, that's what we'll be doing.
Hopefully we'll still have our hair. She's so concerned about me shaving my hair. Worried that my husband won't like it.
Yeah, like my husband hates people who don't have hair. My husband, without hair.
She's trying to talk me out of it. But like I said, it's just hair. And if by shaving my head, we can laugh for a bit and take some goofy photos, why the hell not?
So, yeah, thanks for the happy meal idea. Sweet jeezus, I'm a woman who's purchased millions of those for the kids. It's just that it's been awhile since they've had them that I forgot all about them. happy meal happy meal happy meal (just saying it enough so I can remember next time)
And, what the hell? Chicken salad? How does a chicken salad quench the need for a cheeseburger? Ain't nothing wrong with one cheeseburger. It's the second one that gets you.
Oh and speaking of milkshakes. You know how I was adopting Catie's smoothies idea? Only I somehow managed to turn it into milkshakes with ice cream. And still lost 6 pounds!
The insurance thing has been solved. I found the cards sitting in a room under a pile of computer games and Christmas cards. Right where I filed them, I guess. Only thing is? Thor's company was bought out by a huge conglomerate, last summer, who's insurance sucks. Sucks big time. And the $193 and the $139 prescriptions (including the company's discount - yeehaw!) waiting for Thor at the drugstore? That's what we have to pay for them. Part of the new, crappy insurance deductible that the conglomerate stuck us with. I think it's time for Thor to find a better job. And hopefully one that won't get bought out by another huge conglomerate like most of the ones before this one.
At least he can get reimbursed for enrolling at the local activity center/gym. And it's not like the policies where you have to attend three times a week to get reimbursed. Nope. They just pay you back automatically whether you use it or not. So I say we sign up and let them pay for it even if we never use it. Assholes.
