On the road again

Yes, this should be Cheryl posting, but you get stuck with me again. Clearly, I have not been flogging her enough.

We're going to fly down to PDX for the latest round of chemo tomorrow, then back to the frozen wastes of the Palouse (I'm not kidding, either - we're still getting snow flurries and temps in the high 20s). I'm trying to see if I can get tickets to Tuesday night's Lakers/Blazers tilt on eBay or Stubhub or even Craigslist - anybody reading this in Portland with tickets they want to donate to a good cause? I'm trying to remember if I've ever been to a Blazer game in the Rose Garden - I remember the MC but not the new place. Hopefully we can go and see a Blazer victory over the forces of evil.

All in all, Cheryl's doing okay these days. Her hair, which had thinned out quite a bit towards the end of the IL-2 treatment, actually seems to be coming back. At least, I'm not finding her hairballs all over the place. She's currently sporting a short bob - I don't think I've ever seen my wife with short hair. I have seen her high school photo sporting the she-mullet, and that was scary enough, thankyouverymuch.

She's still suffering from occasional nausea, but no vomiting for a while now, which, again, is a good thing.

Aside from that, not much else to report (my fantasy baseball team is kicking ass, though - so I at least have one source of joy in this godforsaken place).
