Wow! Already 2 months since Xmas, time seems to be flying as much as it also appears to be standing still. I lost another morning to sleep. I have no real idea why this is happening. It could have something to do with me only getting to bed around midnight but that has never ( Read more... )

Apparently I'm still too flat about this, not showing much if any emotion but then again this is me. Realistic, cynical me. The person going through the treatment that is slowly crushing her hope for a normal life. The light at the end of the tunnel has for now been confirmed as ( Read more... )

Lunchtime today we received the results of the CT Scan.

First from the trial doc who seemed happier with the results as figures for the study than for what they meant for me as the patient. "Blah. Blah. You're responding well. Better than many participants after this long on ( Read more... )

Blogging and Facebooking - that's all I managed today. Not too badly though as I did manage to put up 3 blog posts and sort out the planning and timelines for 10 more. It is doing the "research" for the blog planning where I get side-tracked into time-sinks like Facebook. The " ( Read more... )

This morning started with a phone call to @Shadow_SL for his birthday. After he flew down for mine, it was the least we could do and we had lost touch over the last month too. Apparently, he'd ended up in hospital and his new romance seems to be progressing nicely. I'm still ( Read more... )

This morning was the MRI. I've had one before so kinda knew what to expect. I warned the nurses about my low blood pressure and tiny veins. They seemed disinterested but did let me go in in my normal clothes as opposed to one of their ventilated robes. I was wedged in as a ( Read more... )

I spent most of the weekend scripting php to bring movie folders into TVersity only to find out when running it that TVersity only supports 64 folders. TVersity's api is also not so friendly to work with.
