I think I'm having a moment. I believe it's called self-doubt. It ain't pretty.

Is it 7 o'clock yet? No? Damn.
Can you tell I'm pretty psyched to meet up with my girls tonight? Well, yes, as a matter of fact, I am.

So another oncologist appointment and the blood draws that occur with each. Finally feel like I am over the 6-8 weeks of sinus and respiratory infection, coughing and just ready to get going again.
