rjw_lgb_ca: that's not ranting, it's inspiring! Best of luck to your sister.
As for me: rave - I get to go on concert tour with my sweetie and his chamber choir in less than 3 weeks!
rant - he's had late night rehearsals all this week and I haven't spent any kind of time with him since Tuesday.
rave - He doesn't have to rehearse tomorrow!
rant - but they have a big concert and he's got to focus, because he's got a significant solo.
rave - I'll get to hear him sing it!

Rant: I can't seem to fall asleep before 2am at all which kills me when I get up at 6:30am for work.
Rant: They switched the trains by my house which now adds 10 minutes to my already hour and 10 min commute from Brooklyn to Manhattan. And yet they claim this switch was supposed to "save time"! Ha!
Rave: 3 more hours and I get to go home for the weekend! Woohoo! And the weather is supposed to be in the 50's!
Rant: Just when we all thought it was safe to post....the SJ Weirdo is back...
Rant: People who: 1. Don't put their location in the title of their post 2. Refuse to do searches 3. Post the same question numerous times instead of topping the original post when someone doesn't answer them in 10 minutes 4. Decide to travel during a major holiday and then gripe about why it's so expensive or there's no availability. (same rule applies for those who book last minute.)
Maybe we should start a thread titled: Posting Tips for Newbies!!
Rave: Today is payday....enuff said ;-)

Thanks to all for the good wishes for my sister, who's busy painting and faux-wainscoting my mom's basement right now in Bucks County CA. Her goal will be to get healed up and finish my mom's redecorating before summer, when it'll be too hot!

I wish they did. Sadly, they sing "You look like a monkey and you smell like one too". This is a "Family Tradition" that my father and his sense of humor(?) started when we were small children. But I don't sing that to my child.

RAVE: Inspiration from wonderful, altho faceless people we meet on line.....such as RJ's comment: "RAVE: Cancer is a LIFE sentence, not a death sentence, and it's up to us to keep our lives wonderful in sickness or in health."
Thank you rj, how profoundly true! And i will quote you! Praying for your sis...keep us posted!
(also, many companies will match donations to charities and non-profit organizaions....see your HR dept for details.)
RAVE: We get to see son 'rusty' soon, who is now away at college. YAAAAY! Miss him soo much, but he's kickin major butt and having the time of his life!

ellen: Awww, you're too sweet too!

My sis is doing fine-- a bit down, but this is NOT dire, just serious. There's no evidence of any other growths, and there's an outside chance this ISN'T malignant. In any case, everyone's very optimistic. We'll get it behind us so she can have a good summer!
Monday RANT: When oh WHEN will we be able to have a thread concerning the San Francisco Bay Area survive more than a day without the bizarre misdirections of our resident San José booster?! I've noticed that people that actually HAVE reasons to go to San José now cite this nutjob specifically when they say why they WON'T ever go there. It's a shame-- the Tech Museum is truly great....
