The Last Hur-rah!

The rest of the trip to MI was AMAZING! The wedding couldn't have been more beautiful - despite the monsoonal type down pour that occurred 79% of the day. Coli & Jon's families and friends were so much fun to be around - especially my aisle date Jason. However i did not catch the bouquet (not that it was thrown) and resisted all urges to run out and drag a man down the aisle. The highlight of the trip was probably when i bit an unknown and unsuspecting man in the back after consuming 5 dirty martini's at the grooms dinner...ummmm... well in my defense i hadn't had dinner yet AND it was my last big night out for a while :) And it's not like i ripped his shirt or left a bruise on his arm...

The trip back home was quite an experience - mostly i slept in the back seat due to sever exhaustion of being out danced by the bride and the torture corset dress... (think Carol Ann with the alterations lady continually saying "i think it needs to be a little tighter...grrrrrrrrrr) Oh and then there was the whole we almost drowned in Gary Indiana due to FLASH floods, who knew that state could even get 48 inches of rain in 48 hours!?!?!?! And we saw lots of lakes that Garmin did not account for & many cars in gullies. Plus if you want to know my honest opinion - "NO ONE NO ONE NO ONE" should ever have to die in Gary... i mean common... I know God has a sense of humor and all but really I already have cancer**...

AND the next big announcement - i have short hair. Now agreed it was short before, but still long enough where i thought i might have an excessive amount of mini heart attacks when it started to come out... so i said bring on the next Mia Farrow look alike. Amy it's semi you in your Grateful Dead days... :) The inspiration came from Sienna Miller and Keira Knightly and both of those women are smoking hot so I just keep telling my self that I don't look like a boy. (And for you visual learners out there... photos will be loaded very soon!)

Chemo starts on Thursday. I have to be there at 7:15 so that means the wake up call is somewhere around 5:00 a.m. jeeze feels like a QFY day or something like that (so wish it was...) So Blood work is first and then an exam by Dr. Larson (hopefully he's semi Mc Dreamyish...) and then 5 hours of poison pumping. I don't think i would describe my self as scared... yet... but I am looking forward to knowing that no matter what I'll get to be on the AD call for sure! & i always have a good day after that :)


**Disclaimer - That's still funny...
