Day 4 - 17 October 2009

Well I didn't get my flat screen TV yet, but I did get this apron as a present. Hmmm!!! A little Dolly Parton for me but anyone up for a braai??

Actually it is amazing when you become aware of something, you suddenly see it everywhere. Like when you buy that unique blue BMW, all of a sudden you see 10 in a day. I think the official name for it is post-cognitive dissonance (thanks Hil). Well the same thing is happening with my Breast Cancer. Not only do I hear it on every radio station, TV ad, etc - which is expected because of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, but 3 movies we have casually flipped the channel to - there it is!! When I pick up a magazine, wham - some editor has just died of cancer.

Then there are the friends - some do it playfully on purpose because they know they can, but others (to their embarrassment) don't. Things like - keep me abreast, tits up, oh that is tit, let me titillate you, you are getting on my tits, he is a complete tit, and of course the boobie-icon (.) (.) - compliments of my cousin in Canada, which I am now going to use as my sign-off signature to these posts. I like the humor in it though, so to those who feel "oops, I hope I didn't make a boo-boob" ... please, I am not that sensitive.

I am pleased to say that since yesterday morning I haven't much thought about next week in any heavy way. I want to keep it that way, so am making this a short entry and will be sitting by the pool all day tomorrow - which means no entry - so until the dreaded Monday - tits up (.) (.)
