**UPDATE: THE SCAN SHOWS CONTINUED REMISSION. 28 MONTHS AND COUNTING**

Taking the sting off of the Worst Internet Date Ever is the fact that I met a girl! A different girl! She's smart and hot and into me and my best friend never fired her!

Apparently some of the emotional growth work I have been working on over the last few years has paid off. I feel like I am about 5% more confident and easy to talk to. Based on the reactions I am getting from the people around me, it's more like 75%. I will give myself credit for being a really decent guy for a very long time. But my ability to connect with people and convey that has been . . . inconsistent. So, go me. Right here, right now, my life absolutely does not suck.

I had a CT scan last week. Wednesday I go in and get told (definitely. I will DEFINITELY get told) that my remission continues apace. Twenty-seven months and counting. Usually right now I am running about 80% perfectly normal and 20% terrified. But life has been so good that I am running more like 95/5 Fine/Terror. I could get used to this.

And I made dinner plans with my Mom because that's the kind of awesome son I am.

I tried to upload a new profile pic and failed miserably. I guess I need to go back to the help threads to see how to beat down the file size on these pictures.

That's very good news about the better date! Congrats. smile
How'd the scan go? Generally, saving as GIF or JPG will decrease the size of the file quite a bit.

For better or worse, I got about the cheapest couch I could manage. I've heard good things about the company that makes them though, so maybe they'll last a while.
