Middle of the night

I am sitting here at moms with insomnia. The steroids in the chemo jack me up to infinity.my tummy is swollen and it is hard to sit up. Think end of secomd trimester.it will go down. I just went downstairs and got some apple juice and was reflecting on my chemo experience. There Were some loud rude ladies next to me. I put on my ipod to tune them out. Fake nails, plastic surgy, lots of perfume, bad frosted hightlights, loud cell phone ringers, facelifts that let me just say were a combination of joan crawford and startled. Lots of plumpy lips, where they put the injections in the wrong place so instead of looking sexy, they looked like their husbands punched them in the mouth. It was funk day. Old al green, curtis mayfield,earth wind and fire, outkast speakerboxx, quincy jones, billy ocean. Made me happy. Got home and fell in bed. I am tired and weak and the steroids counteract it for a day or so. I will be wiped out later on. It's all good. I think i am going to watch An thiny Boudain on you tube on the computer in here. I love his shows. No other real news.i hope this insomnia goes away.....before dawn.

  1. I wish you'd taken pictures of the whores at chemo. I hope you can get some sleep and feel better. I was thinking yesterday when you, Lela, and I were on Facebook talking about her wedding how wonderful it is that even when you're writing to us from chemo you are still very much the saucy minx! xoxoxoxoxoxo
