Donut Cowboy Disappointment in These Foolish Things

Army of Arms in These Foolish Things
Did I tell you all about spending all of this time trying to go through my company’s Employee Assistance Program (EAP) to find a therapist to help me wrap my head around all of the shit that’s go...
Angels as Bartenders in These Foolish Things
Where were we? Last I wrote was the morning of Chemo #11. It’s kind of weird to say, but it was a good one. I’ll tell you why: It’s nearing the end of this chemo treatment. My oncologist visit...
Like a Walk in the Park in These Foolish Things
Had the loveliest, loveliest weekend, y’all. I seriously did NOT want it to end. I even stayed up a little late Sunday night watching Netflix just wishing for more weekend. I guess it really sta...
Update Vom. in These Foolish Things
I need to update many, many things. Work: Here at the office now. I only seem to want to write when I’m sitting upright at my desk with my multiple screens and with other work going on. I still...
#TMIFiles: the quickest and shortest... in These Foolish Things
Started an entry yesterday. I was so stressed out at work but I don’t want to get into why…it’s not worth the energy because it’s stupid work stuff that’s super boring to read and would stress me...
#TMIFiles: Another Chemo Week in These Foolish Things
Hey - happy Monday! Another chemo week is upon us (well, me…but I’m taking you along for the ride)! Yesterday I started feeling the anxiety of what this week means. It’s weird because it’s Chem...
My Body Under Reconstruction in These Foolish Things
I posted updates on my head scan on the socials today, so I wanted to come back here and let you know that all looks clear from a vascular standpoint. The scans came back completely focused on t...
Kicking and Fighting (Minus the Drama) in These Foolish Things
Hey guys, what’s the scoop? Agggghhh. I wait so long to write an entry and then I want to get all the things written down! So. My latest is that I had to have a brain CT/CTA scan today. Neat...
New Place, Almost New Me! in These Foolish Things
Hey! I’ve started an entry about 15 times. Life has just gotten busy, busy, busy. I like to tap stuff out when I have a free moment at the office, but lately there have been no free moments at ...
OMG It's Been Forever! in These Foolish Things
How long has it been since I’ve updated?! Forever! So much has happened since my “Nope” entry. I don’t want to forget stuff, so I’ve made a little list and I’ll have to fill in details later. ...
Nope. in These Foolish Things
Nope. I don’t like that video I posted yesterday. I tried to use it to help me sleep last night and some of the “bongs” on the bowls were jarring and kept me awake! I think I need something dif...
#TMIFiles: Healing Vibrations in These Foolish Things
I got ahead of my work today (WOW! Look at me go!) so I thought I’d just pop on and say hello and that I’m feeling pretty good after a few days of the bluhs. I wish I could describe how this ch...
#TMIFiles: After the Disco and Other Stuff in These Foolish Things
Monday. Another work week is upon us. I actually don’t have a ton of pressing issues on my plate right now (can’t believe it since I was out on Friday!), so I thought I’d write a little update. F...
#TMIFiles: Chemo Infusion #7 in These Foolish Things
Hello from the office. I haven’t written in a good long while and I finally have some things to report! Yesterday was my chemotherapy infusion #7 and it was a rough one. Thankfully I’m more than ...
Muh Brayn in These Foolish Things
I’m writing another entry because I thought about something after I posted the last entry that I’ve been meaning to write about and I keep forgetting because… MY BRAIN DOESN’T WORK RIGHT ANYMORE....
In-Between Week in These Foolish Things
Been nearly a week since I last updated. I wish I had exciting stuff to tell you, but it’s kinda been one of those weeks that have been almost like before times: Hardly anyone is wearing masks ...
Recovery Weekend #6 in These Foolish Things
Happy Saturday evening. It’s approaching 9pm and I’m already tucked in bed, all my nightly routine stuff done (including face washing, moisturizing and meds). I’m in the middle of recovery wee...
Updates on Various in These Foolish Things
The Cyclist: So far, this guy seems like what I’ve been looking for. He’s attentive, sending little texts throughout the day (some people don’t like that, but I love the little check-ins), MADE A...

Stuff Don't Stick in These Foolish Things
Oh shoot. I started an entry yesterday and then had to close out. I thought that PB would save the draft. It used to! What happened? How are you lately? I’ve been really good! Kind of shocki...
Of Pot and Papaya in These Foolish Things
Y’all. I am the worst at being a pothead. I am scared of the vape pen and I don’t think I’m doing it correctly. I might try a tiny bit of a gummy tonight instead of the melatonin gummies I’ve b...
When Things Get a Little More Real in These Foolish Things
Yesterday I went in for Chemo Infusion #5. I did my pre-chemo morning routine - the regular workout at home, pack my ice bag (for the icing protocol during one of the chemo meds), take Martini t...
What a Weeeeeeek. in These Foolish Things
Happy Friday - what a freaking week. Work’s been sucky. And by sucky, I mean, everyone is in a tizzy. It’s a panic, y’all. When I tell you that it’s about to get really bad for consumer product...
#TMIFiles: Talking it Out in These Foolish Things
Ever since my brain injury in 2019 I have made it a point to call my parents every evening. At first it was because I was afraid I was going to have a stroke and die in my sleep those first few ...
