What I did this morning

We went to a talk on nutrition for chemo patients this morning. It was so tedious. It turns out that almost everything that is recommended for chemo patients is also contraindicated. It pretty much boiled down to "eat whatever you can hold down", but it took almost 1 1/2 hours to get to that point.

There were three other people with us. One was a woman who ate three dozen Eskimo Pies to "bulk up" , and another woman who brought her husband with her. The husband was about the only thing that kept my interest. He kept interrupting the dietitian with these strange little bits of wisdom, that I preserve for posterity:
--"Societal pressures prevent us from drinking water"
--"...and then there's acid!"
--"Let's talk about bulk.

But the most intriguing thing about this guy was that he was wearing tube socks on both arms, with little holes cut out for his fingers and thumb.

I was sorry I didn't have my camera with me, but as soon as I got home, I created a dramatic reenactment, illustrated below. Funny, the sock is strangely comfortable. Let's talk about bulk......


don't try this at home

What I did this afternoon

As soon as the car stopped, there was a sound like a wolverine trying to claw its way out from under the hood. Then antifreeze started spewing out all over the place, just like krakatoa (east of Java).
