the golden seal

i got a call last night from my buddy behl. my god daughter had a setback. she had been progressing well and responding to chemo, but her MRI was pretty bad. i've been planning to take her and her sisters to the aquarium all summer, but i think there's gonna be a lot of tests and stuff now. i can't believe how cancer's like that. the bottom drops out all the time. i wish there was some way that the government could mandate that all scientists and other bright minds work on serious afflictions like cancer and AIDs before making things like dick juice and vanity treatments. i get this feeling that you make way more money developing cosmetic advancements and there are all these minds that could be helping solve real problems, but its not as profitable. i may be wrong.

until that call, things had been going super well. went to nashville last week w/beth. hung out w/my parents a bunch as of late. saw shanny and roy out in the suburbs, then supported the poetry slam up in palatine. recorded some stuff w/j last night. been writing consistently. and of course, tomorrow is pierogi fest.
