FavoriteChild is delusional. He went to visit our Mom in Florida last week. His little smug self was all about sending everyone picture texts documenting his supposed awesomeness. You judge for yourself:
Favorite: ”Look, Mom, it’s a cancer institute! Let’s go inside and see what kind of trouble we can get into!!”
Favorite: ”Hey, Mom, we can’t pass up such a golden opportunity. Spare no expense. This chemo’s on me.”
And, that was that. FavoriteChild took her to her chemo appointment, and somehow argued that he was the more impressive child for having done so. More impressive than the playful time the rest of us showed her a little while ago? Judge for yourself:
So who showed who the best time?
Yeah, I know. He still wins. He ALWAYS ALWAYS wins. If you want proof, just look at the smile on Mom’s face in that second picture up above. I’m starting to wonder if he slips her happy drugs every time he’s around. Like since he was about 6 months old. He is a psychiatrist, you know.
On another note, I have to thank her Gracefulness for continuing to encourage me to write in this blog. She adorned my Facebook wall with this note today:
Humans can live only about five minutes without oxygen, three days without water, and five weeks without food.
But did you know that a blog reader starts to die after two days without new material?
I had a crazy busy week last week with work, but it was SO worth it. I have an announcement: I experienced my own Oprah-esque moment. I’d like to leave this post as a bit of a cliffhanger, but I’ll tease you with the visual of me ASSISTING THE UNDERSECRETARY OF THE USDA WITH A WIRELESS MICROPHONE. Take, that, Oprah-boy. Mom is SO going to want to tell all her friends about this.
Stay tuned.
If blog readers die after 2 days of lack-of-new-materials, then you killed us all off 9 days ago. You’re really mean. Killing off your whole family like that. I’m going to protest this blog.
Does that mean I will die of lack-of-new-blog-materials-that-brighten-my-day-and-bring-a-smile-to-my-face-itas?
I’m so confused. I blame the 11 days without a post. I just don’t know what to do with myself anymore.
Blog readers START to die after two days. It is a slow and excruitiatingly painful death, but the process begins after 48 hours.
This a well documented phenomenon and has caused the maiming and death of millions of people. You can look it up on any reputable medical website. If it doesn’t have that problem listed, it’s obviously not credible and you shouldn’t trust it.
Ooh man, I can feel the pain, it really wore on me those past 9 days… but now I feel better after reading this.
you know it’s you’re auntly duty to not purposefully inflict pain on your beloved neice, right?
I would like to give my input as an official future medical professional. I hereby declare everything stated above as true.
It’s all so clear now. My mind is functioning again. I’m finally cured of the-blog-i-usually-read-hasn’t-posted-anything-in-eleven-days-and-i’m-desperately-looking-for-a-new-blog-to-read-and-entertain-me-before-the-slow-crippling-and-apparently-painful-death-of-lack-of-new-blog-material-itas-kicks-in-and-leaves-me-a-shattered-shell-of-my-former-self-forever-condemned-to-live-life-as-a-cripple-without-any-hope-of-ever-achieving-true-happiness-in-this-world-itas
Impressive, Bud! And, this group has got to be the oddest set of comments yet.
I want to hear more about your Opra experience last week…you told me you were to get anaward but I have not read about it yet…CONGRATULATIONS!!!!Tell us more…
As far as delusional…I m confused…It is a bunch of odd comments…guess i ll start my own blog.
I totally and completely vote for Nanni starting her own blog!!!
The best part of having Nanni start a blog is that we won’t have to wait 11 days for new material and Zack won’t get that one disease. What was that one again Zack? It sounded pretty bad
It was long-comment-itas.
What, were you expecting something longer?
