O.M.G.

Watching Rachel Maddow is better than Monday night football.

Benihana!

$1 donation is fine.

quiet down.

Do as I say, not as I do. I tell strangers stuff they don't need to know, talk when I get nervous, talk when people make me uncomfortable, and (just generally) talk too damn much. I am learning now something that I wish I had known years ago.

Silence has power.
Silence keeps them guessing.
Silence... is golden.

  I didn't write that last one.

If only I had known. I guess it is never too late to stfu. I'm practicing as of late, and I like it. Problem is: people think I am mad when I stfu, which is funny. You teach people how to treat you, and I've taught many people not to respect me because of my need to tell them all the bad things about myself before they figure it out on their own.

I'm learning. I get chemo in November and I am telling no one except my closest peeps. I have so few friends... and the ones I do have are dropping like flies.

I have found that most people are simply not worth my time. Quietly, I am loving the company of myself.

sorry

Silence like a cancer grows...

picky, picky, picky...

Classic 50's. I use tissues now. 

Romney or Obama?

They probably voted early.

Swim with the fishes...

Think about it. You treat your fish-tank so much better than you treat your body. If you left fish in a filthy dirty tank with no filter they would die. Why do you think of your body as any different? I spent years drinking coffee with flavored, franken cream, pretzels with ingredients I couldn't pronounce, non-grassfed meat, dairy, fast food, crackers and cereal with so many ingredients that I needed a freaking dictionary. I have cancer. You don't want it, trust me.

Neither do I.

It is essential to keep your body alkaline so that cancer doesn't like living there... kind of like algae in a tank. All fruits and veggies are alkaline and the rest of the supermarket is acidic. i.e. meat, dairy, sugar, all processed food, booze, and any food that contains chemicals. This does not mean that I am a freak. This just means that I clean my tank several times a day, check my urine with alkaline strips and make SURE it reads green and not yellow. I believe in the 80/20 rule so I eat pasta, sugar and (God knows) I drink. But having cancer is a scary thing and so most of the time I do 95/5. I rarely eat wheat, sugar or dairy. I drink my green-shake 3x a day... and, let's face it... it makes me feel like a million bucks. I am getting a ton of nutrients and filtering out my tank every single day. Also? I don't look like I have cancer or do chemo several times a year. I don't feel like it either.

I use a Magic Bullet.

2 cups spinach/kale
1 cup water
tumeric (cancer cells hate the taste of this)
juice of 1/2 lemon (sounds acidic but VERY alkaline)
2 packages of stevia (so I can stand this shit)

I am empowered to live a beautiful life and filter my tank. Why don't you join me?

Let's all sing!

Chicago

Who needs to stop and have a photo op when we I can squirm out of Nonna's lap and run in the street?

Summer

is really over.

?

Bruce and I went to Chicago this weekend... came home and the bunk beds have been slept in and there are toys everywhere. I'm not sure if it was grandchildren or there was a Barbie Burglary from some pervert thief.
