A definite life chronicle beyond the mundane. Welcome to the mind of a grounded gypsy as I have a new adventure in re-defined life paradigm of cancer battles and such.

so really, I'm a 7th grade boy at heart...

....and it's something my friends know, although I do try to maintain some semblance of "cool chic" for the rest of the world. That being said, the best way I can describe a full three days of chemo (without the nausea, because "All thanks be to God!!", I've dodged that part of it so far) is to akin it to when Wolverine is having his endoskeleton injected. If you're not an X-men fan, I really can't help you, I'm not THAT much of a nerd-nik, it's really just the best allusion I can muster.

So, today I'm lying around feeling like a 90 year old with severe arthritis and I get a phone call from John Ross, WHO is at the entertainment, sci-fi expo thing here in town. And I've lost most of you already... BUT, sweet thing that he is, was walking around to all these actors, shoving his cell phone at them and saying, "Here, talk to my theatre teacher." (this is where the 7th grade boy part of me emerges) Because it really MADE MY DAY to talk to Ernie Hudson (Ghostbusters), Brad Dourif(Lord of the Rings), David Prowse and Anthony Daniels (Star Wars), they were very nice to take the time and chat with me! YAY!

    Very cool! How wonderfully thoughtful of him! Now, please let us know if you get any uncontrollable urges to kill people and if flexing your fist causes sharp metal thingies to come out of your wrists! I'll stay far, far away! (On the other hand, it may cause you to grow some hair back... just probably in the wrong places!)

    Hmmm... it doesn't seem that most of your readers are familiar with the fun that can be had in blog comments. Think of all of the witty repartee that we are missing! C'mon, y'all! The water's fine!

    By the way, I not only know who wolverine is, I think he's kinda foxy! (Or would that be wolverinie?)
