Ask Me Anything! in Ponderings of the Universe
Another PB friend is doing something like this now, so I figured I'd hop on the bandwagon. Ask me all the things! I'm especially fond of weird, random, silly questions, but I'm up for anything. F...
Nemma Worries and Weird Faces in Ponderings of the Universe
Having a lazy day, ignoring the beautiful weather (I hope to go for a walk later, but when there's less sun so I don't have to slather on the sunscreen), counting my little dog's respiratory rate...
Halfway Point... in Ponderings of the Universe
I have completed chemotherapy 6 of what should be 12. It'll be nice when I feel like I can start a countdown until I'm done, having more completed than left. Before my next infusion, I'm having...
PO-TA-TOES in Ponderings of the Universe
Thank you for the photo requests! Keep them coming! I'll definitely be having fun working on them :) Chemo again on Tuesday. Blerg. I know it's doing me good, but it's definitely a hard thing to...
Because We MUST Match in Ponderings of the Universe
My mom and I keep buying the same clothing items. Apparently we want to be twinsies. In the past month, we've gotten both matching sweatshirts and tank tops and the same pair of shoes, but in dif...
Hot Dog! in Ponderings of the Universe
I woke up at 6:30 this morning for some bizarre reason and couldn't get back to sleep. It was nice, though. I putzed online while everyone else slept. It was very cozy :) I discovered the photob...
10 Years in Ponderings of the Universe
Tomorrow is our 10th anniversary. It's amazing that Aaron and I have been together for a decade :) We don't really have anything planned aside from making something tasty and spending time togeth...
Yay!!! Good News!!! in Ponderings of the Universe
I had chemo today so I'm tired, but I didn't want to keep this news from you all, since you've all been so kind and supportive. I'll go into greater detail later when my brain is functioning more...
Twiddling My Thumbs... in Ponderings of the Universe
I hate the waiting game. The PET scan yesterday went well. The imaging center seemed very efficient. Once again, I was so thankful for my port so they didn't have to dig around for a peripheral...
I finally got the emails sent off to rotation coordinators, so now I just wait to see if they'll let me do their rotations. Oh, and I finally finished that bird paper paper the Monday before my l...
Butt Lube! in Ponderings of the Universe
I've been really wanting to write an entry for the last few days but now that I'm here, my mind has gone blank. Oh! I wanted to thank all of you for leaving such supportive comments on my last ...
Blah in Ponderings of the Universe
Today sucks. It's the day of the White Coat Ceremony for my class. Essentially, it's a ceremony that represents us coming closer to being members of the veterinary community and they have some of...
Rotations, Bras, and the Zoo! in Ponderings of the Universe
I've been working with two people in student services department trying to figure out what to do in the fall and I am so amazed by how helpful and caring they've been. They've been brainstorming ...
Putzing and Plotting in Ponderings of the Universe
For not having a lot to do, I sure suck at updating! I had my most recent chemo treatment last Tuesday so I'm starting to feel more normalish. I've been experimenting on myself. Like I wrote in ...
Bra Hoarder in Ponderings of the Universe
I'm being bad and avoiding writing the paper I told my professor I'd try to have completed by the end of the month. It's like being in undergrad again. I have, however, finally gotten all of my s...
I Need a Hobby in Ponderings of the Universe
How is it already Saturday? Time has been passing so oddly lately what with me not really having a schedule. I'm getting really bored and antsy. I can't believe I miss school as much as I do. I r...
Crunchy Ice and More Dog Farts in Ponderings of the Universe
I have my second chemo treatment tomorrow. Whee. I'm a bit anxious but I think it should go OK if the first treatment was any indication. And it's outpatient so I get to go home once it's done. Y...
Farting Dogs in Ponderings of the Universe
This whole being an invalid thing is kind of boring. It's nice not having the stress of school and I love watching hours of Golden Girls but...eh I miss doing something with myself. Well, it's no...
Fat Sounds Awesome! Let's Get Fat! in Ponderings of the Universe
The fatigue from the first round of chemo seems to be pretty much gone. It wasn't that bad, especially as I didn't really have anything I had to do, so I could just randomly fall asleep whenever ...

First of all, thank you all so much for your support. You guys give me all the feels and the outflow of positivity even from folks I've never interacted with is just so amazing. I hope to be able...
I Have Hodgkin's Lymphoma in Ponderings of the Universe
Blunt but true. The past few days have been...well, odd, to say the least. Going into the ER for what I thought was an upper respiratory thing or even pneumonia turned into a cancer diagnosis. ...
Time to Go Back to Bed Yet? in Ponderings of the Universe
Sleepy, non-productive, menstrually day. I have a weird headache and I can't tell where it's coming from. I think it's time for cider and Advil. I want to buy my groceries here: http://youtu....
Sex Toy for the Dog...Wait, WHAT?! in Ponderings of the Universe
So...Nemma maybe seems a bit better today? He's had 2 doses of the lasix and we've separated him from Nigel (they're always getting into tiffs and it's stressful for the Nemma). He slept with mum...
Nesmith Problems in Ponderings of the Universe
Bleh. Not the most awesome day. A few days ago, Nesmith, one of my dogs, started coughing more than usual. He has a stage 4/6 mitral heart murmur and (we think) it's been making him cough for qu...
