I like games where I can use my precise button-mashing technique. Unfortunately the games they play aren't exactly well suited for my drunken master style :-(
rush:
ooo sounds good, now the feat will be actually being off work at the same time :-(
I'm back. Minus 20 lbs and some organs. They say the surgery went well, that it didn't spread, but recovery has been painful beyond compare. Chemo starts next week, so at least I get to rest one more week... I started hormone therapy to help kill the cancer cells too...
A very special thank you too everyone who supported me and was there in spirit...

An open marriage?? Haha, I live in a conservative middle state, and they are in their late 50's or so, living in a small town in this middle state. The likelihood of them having an open marriage is quite small!
vim:
my thoughts and prayers are with you dude.

I went back and had a look at your previous entry and I see that your battle is with the evil Spanish dancer.
You look like a fighter so I am sure you will kick her arse, anyway I will say a prayer for you mate on valentines day and send some positive energy your way and I mean prayer not from a religious point of view as in asking a god for a favour but from a meta-physical view point. I believe fully in the power of the human brain and it's energy, I also feel that we as humans can harness that energy and focus it in a very real and tangible way and use it either positively or negatively, I mean who has not felt the positive buzz or vibe of a large happy crowd either at a sports game or concert and come away feeling charged, well I believe there is more too that then just a warm fuzzy, there is real power there. Seek it out and surround yourself with that power, have it focused on you. In fact we will throw parties for all sorts of reasons all so we can feel good about ourselves, so why not get your mates together and have a healing party, you know like get a bunch of your best mates in a room all having a great time and focusing there energy on getting you well, at the very least you will have a great time and you never know it may just..........

Hi hun I just read your good news on your lovley wifes blog I am really happy for you both and i hope your treatment continues to be successful You take care 
spinhouse247:
Judging by your character (one thing I'm great at) you have it beat already. You will curb this cancer like a racist committing a hate crime. I'm minutes away, so if you need anything please let me know. I may have my own issues but I take care of the people I care about before me because karma is a bitch. Cell it up bro: 203.554.9704
Let's see... 1 CT scan, 2 endoscopies (one with needle biopsy), 1 colonscopy, 1 MRI, and a tumor later, I have what they think is MEN I. Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia. Blah. Doctor was very funny... hey doc is it malignant (because Panceas Cancer has a sub 1% survival rate) well AK, it is either malignant or pre-malignant. Great.
Ok so maybe calling myself the devil...

Happy New Year.
I spent this weekend in bed (with Vegemite taking care of me!) since friday I found out the cause of all my troubles... wasn't my appendix but a tumor (probably benign) on my pancreas. Sucks. They did however give me free drugs, and that does not suck.
Doctor appointment tomorrow for MRI schedule, with surgery not long after. Happy fucking new year...

Hope you're doing better todizzle. <3
What do I wish for? nothing for myself. You know I grew up never having anything. I wasn't as poor as kids in 3rd world countries, but I lived below the poverty line for a while. In years past I wished for normal clothes that kids wouldn't laugh at me for... that no one whispered "he's poor and he must be dirty" b/c I wore...

Happy New Year Bro!
Sigh..
So a month of being sick.. bacterial and viral infections suck big time, and they stop me from doing everything I love, including being here and updating and writing in people's journals... but there is a bright spot on the horizon... the bacteria is dead, and the virus is being handled with anti virals... so no more bitching... Thanksgiving was great, thanks to vegemite...

Ok so quite a while since my last post... Cali was great! Lou Ferrigno isn't just a personal trainer, he's also a super nice guy... and vegemite and I had a blast!
The High Holy Days were nice, of course, nothing but sadness in the news... what's up with teenage boys losing their minds and shooting people? Especially young girls.... sickening really. One question comes...

Halloween party here this weekend, $5 for the keg. Check my profile for details bro. I'd love to have you, Veg and Lacey here.
So my 30's are now measured in hours not days, weeks, months, or years... 40 seemed so old to me when I was 20... and even 30, but now it seems like an old friend waiting for me to say hi. Before I go any further a pause for a guy who lived like a rockstar and truly loved animals...
