It’s been an interesting couple of days.
I had a scare.
Thankfully I had a dermatology appointment scheduled to check it out and he figured out that it wasn’t cancer and it will (hopefully) take care of itself with antibiotics and treatment. He may have to remove it and do a biopsy I guess, he’s said that was a possibility, but for now the biggest Christmas present this year is that he did rule out the C word and that’s got me happy.
I mean I know I’m destined for one of two things around the holidays: 1) finding out I had some sort of horrible illness or 2) hitting the lottery/super prize etc. It would be just like my life if the two were related or happened on the same day.
I am listening to “Boom Boom Ba” by a group named Metisse. It was on a lot of the episodes of “Dead Like Me” this year and sort of just got stuck in my play list. Hopefully that’s setting the mood for the day. I mean after the past two days of worry I can settle down, relax and say “oh hey, it’s going to be okay.” But then again I look and have the Kobe Bryant boards waiting for me and the antibiotics make me sick so umm … yah. My dad’s probably going to need wood for the wood stove today too. No. Bad. Bad thoughts. Get them out of here.
It doesn’t look like we’re going to have a white Christmas this year. It’s Christmas eve right now and it’s 47 degrees out American. The snow has become fog, heavy dense fog and I can see across the street and that’s about it out my window. I wanted to go out and get my dad something for Xmas today. I mean I gave him his two main presents already (DVDs of the latest Harry Potter and the first season of MASH) but I wanted something to put under the tree. Our tree is totally empty this year (again) and has been empty since the kids left. I sort of can’t wait to hear their reactions on the phone to the mountain of presents we sent out. I pick good presents, that’s for sure, and hopefully just HOPEFULLY they’ll drive my sister nuts with them … oh I wouldn’t be that evil now, would I?
Damn straight.
Anyway, no white Christmas this year but I don’t mind. Seeing that the last 3 weeks have been snow. I mean a cloud would fart and we’d have another inch of snow. Plane flies too low, cloud develops gas (literally) and a moisture problem and ta-da! 3 more inches of snow!
Ha.
Off to shower now on a high note.
