Countdown to the Halfway Point!
Well, folks, on Thursday I'll be halfway through my cancer treatment. Woo-hoo! I'll have to come up with a cool way to celebrate. Of course, I won't exactly feel like celebrating for at least a week after my chemotherapy, but when that week is up, look out! I'm sure to do something wild and crazy. You know, like I usually do.
Yeah, right.
Speaking of wild and crazy, I went on a walk today at lunch and nearly got attacked by a squirrel! OK, I kind of lied. The squirrel did not in fact nearly attack me, but it sure looked like it wanted to. It was clinging to this tree trunk as I walked by, and instead of running away as I got closer, like any normal squirrel would do, it actually started down the trunk toward me. And it kept staring at me with its big black eyes. (Have you ever noticed that squirrels do not have whites in their eyes? It's very weird.) Needless to say, the squirrel's aggressive advance freaked me out. I mean honestly, of all things, the last thing I need right now is RABIES on top of CANCER. Good Lord.
Aside from the squirrel encounter, though, the day was pretty tame. After work I read a bit of The Heart is a Lonely Hunter by Carson McCullers, one of those "I really ought to read that someday" books which I finally decided to actually read, but which is taking way longer than it should. It's good, but I have to admit it makes me feel a little ill that it was written by a 23-year-old. I try not to think about it.
I also went for another walk. I'd like to say something exciting happened when I was out, but nothing did, so I won't.
On that note, I think I'll go to bed soon, seeing as how it's 10 p.m. and all. Wouldn't want to do something wild and crazy and stay up too late! So here's a goodnight kiss from the frogg princess. Sweet dreams, my lovelies...
