crackin' myself up

I have been excavating kids' rooms and cleaning as my parents are arriving for a visit tomorrow (I'm so excited). I was in my bathroom thinking about what needed to be done and as I await my T-X shipment I had a thought that I should really take the time to make my bathroom extra beautiful since I may be in there all the time. I also thought I should start collecting my friends' magazines as they finish them so I have entertainment. Then I thought maybe I should put on an addition for a library.

I went for chemo education today with a fun NP at the center. She gave me some Xeloda drug company schwag. I always laugh at the color printed information with the drawings of side effects (I do understand why they need to be there). But the profile of the woman on the toilet (with her dress over her bottom) really cracks me up. As does the one of the same unfortunate gal leaning over the toilet. I thought maybe I should use that like a door placard in a hotel. I can put it on my front door when I'm experiencing these things and then at least people know where to find me.

Aw well at least it is interesting, huh?
