The same age as when Jesus died for your fucking sins, you damn heathens. If I make it to next year, I'll have done something that not even the son of God could do. Heh.
It started 8 days ago. Rose and I decided to have tea. I thought it was my idea, but little did I know that I was to be treated to a surprise! Tea started out normally, but then she asked me about the car and goats problem. I should have smelled something funny at this point since I know she doesn't care about it at all, but I indulged in explaining it to her. This, of course, was a distraction; she didn't want me to idly look up and see what the hostesses were preparing. Which was my favourite pie, lemon meringue! It was followed by teacups hand made from local artists Maude Blais and Sheila Caplan. Click the picture to see better.
November 8 was a great day. I had lunch with zura and Suj at Olive et Gourmando in Old Montreal. I couldn't finish the Nouveau Chèvre sandwich, but it was still delicious. Then Suj and I went off shopping to find me an awesome toaster oven. I should toss my regular oven, because this thing rocks. It works better than the conventional one. Afterwards, Suj became my personal porter and lugged the thing all the way to NDG where we visited Krystal at her work, Shaika Cafe. She makes a mean ho cho.
I had to run back home because I needed to drop stuff off and then go to the local CLSC to learn how to fill my Neupogen syringes (two a day, plus one for Tinzaparin, yay!), and later that evening it was drinks with the gang (Sujerin, zura and Krystal) at the Irish Embassy pub. Photos from that evening are in K-Dawg's hands, so I can't show anything right now, but I will say that I am proud to have had 2 full pints AND baby pork ribs. Impressive for a guy with only 3/4 of a stomach and 3/20 of an esophagus. St. Patty's, here I come!
Speaking of which, I am happy to say that I am recovering pretty well. Now that chemo is over, I can reap the benefits of being 2 and a half months post surgery. Eating is approaching normal with normal results. Things are finally starting to look really good.
Oh you bastard... you had to outdo me on the toaster oven dept.
The game is on!
Booyah!
