Well this week I started getting radiation therapy. I try to pretend I'm at the beach and not getting zapped by alien mind probes. 5 weeks of this stuff. The worst part is having to get up at 6am to drive across the city to the hospital.

Well I had my left eye operated on 12/29/09. It was a great success as well. Now I have 20/20 vision in both eyes. And I had my pre-op screening for my next round of brain surgery in a couple weeks. So we'll see how that goes... surreal

Well after two weeks in Alaska I'm back in this overpopulated hellhole commonly known as the south. I extended my flight once much to the great dismay of my wife, but now I'm back & my internal clock is still set to Alaska time which is 4 hours behind east coast time.

It used to be that I would start packing for a trip 2 weeks before I left. That had disastrous consequences on one trip when I left my packed bags sitting on the floor of our living room & not discovering that they were there till the next day when we were 600 miles away in Boston. eeek So this time I'm trying to mentally pack...

So I get a call from my dentist's office a few weeks ago. They want me to come back up to have my crowns fitted. We settle on June 17th. I actually get a decently priced fare with Jet Blue & I wait. I called the dentist up on Saturday to ask if I could stay with them again. This morning I get a nasty...

Well most of May has flown right by. Its been hot & humid here for most of the month. I had three massages & I'm looking forward to a two hour long one on 6/12, my birthday. Apart from the heat its been an austere month. We've been cutting back on expenses in every facet of our life. We had our eldest boy, his wife...

Well on Monday I had a different kind of massage. I had a girl walk on my back! Its called ashiatsu. I went to Urbana at Birkdale Village in Huntersville, NC. http://www.escape2urbana.com It was about a 45 minute drive from my house at the start of rush hour. The Birkdale Urbana is about 3x the size of the Carmel Rd location. My masseuse was Karen....

I'd thought about taking some photos but that thought was fleeting. Having a girl walk on your back is pure bliss.

I'd received an email at the beginning of April from a local spa called Urbana.
http://www.escape2urbana.com/ It was for $30 off an hour massage at the location closest to me. Well I filed it away thinking that I'd get to booking some time with them well before April was over & done with. I happened to visit Urbana in late March to sample their tea...

Well I flew out of Charlotte on Tuesday via Jet Blue. The flight to JFK was uneventful. I was very surprised to see all of the changes in Terminal 5. The last time I was there, there was nothing there. Now there are 5 sit down restaurants, a food court, a shopping mall & a spa. shocked
My shuttle didn't meet me at Logan so I...

What's up? Well I finally got my ticket to Boston. I'll be gone for three days visiting the dentist. When I spoke to him on the phone he told me that he had been diagnosed with prostate cancer, but they had caught it early. He didn't have to take medication because they took it out. eeek I imagine that his wife isn't very happy about this....
