aunt's funeral today. she died either Monday night or Tuesday morning (she died in her sleep).
age 62 and had Cerebral Palsy (both mental and physical disabilities).
have I mentioned that funerals suck, by the way? just saying.
so my sister had her surgery. things went good. now its the waiting game to see what the biopsies say. she had a lymph node and a tumor removed. thankfully both were less than 1 CM.
waiting games do suck, though.
well, its been a while and things have definitely been interesting the past few weeks....
about 2 weeks ago my mom texts me to tell me my sister (age 45) has breast cancer. 2 lumps, same side, less than 1 cm, and nothing in the lymph nodes. also the first person in our family to have breast cancer....in fact, the only other person in our...

doing laundry at the laundromat and watching people leave the carts everywhere after using them (and 1 lady using 3 of the 6 carts for herself) really irritates me.....
then shopping and seeing how people leave their carts everywhere just reinforces my dislike of the general population.
just saying.
so a week off (my job gives a tremendous amount of time off....about 31 days a year. and since I maxed out what I can carry over, I get to use that every year...nice!).
so I'm going down to Alfred University (where I graduated from) for a day. see the new Art Museum and such. haven't been there in 15 years....time to see how the...

so seriously thinking of spending the money on an on-line dating service (like Match.com). its been over 10 years with zero interest from anyone. I don't like bars or parties, and most of my friends are either not around my age, not in my area, or in a relationship. so it leaves me in a difficult situation.
plus the one person I have an interest...

well, felt kind of sick at work today, at least in the morning. second time its happened in a long time. I made it through the entire day, though.....by the afternoon I was feeling better. skipped lunch (just not hungry), maybe that was a symptom. don't know. so instead I left work, got a salad on the way home, and plan on going to sleep...

another weekend is over....how does it fly by so fast? I usually have an idea of what I want to do (cleaning my apartment) and I got it all done (and then some....since I changed my bedding and got the exterior of my car washed), but damn it was over fast.
thankfully I have Friday off, though, so that should help. and then I have...

First day of vacation (taking four days off) and I've pretty much done the major things I wanted to get done. I have moved some book shelves around and replaced an old one in my storage room. so now the question is what else should I do with the week?
also debating if I want to try Match.com (or some other dating website). Anyone have...
