I guess we never shared the googly eye thing? On the second chemo ever, his feet were sticking out of the blanket as he slept, so I eyebombed them. His boots have had a pair of googly eyes each since then. Sure enough, they fall off, but miraculously, they reappeared each chemo session when he slept. Then they started appearing al over the consultation rooms. (many are still there that appeared more than two years ago. Nothing is safe.

One of his bucket list items we didn't manage (yet) was an entry into the Guinness Book of World Records. We were mentally working on it along this theme..... ever acquired a few supplies... maybe.... and i plan to continue -the kids and I all have his name, so if we make it, so does he

26,362. That's my wife's spot in line to buy Hamilton tickets at the Kennedy Center in their random order online ticket sale this morning. Our friend has spot 4502. The friend will get tickets. I think we probably won't but don't actually know. It's a big theater, sales are limited to 4 tickets per purchase, and it will be here for a couple months.

The whole thing is kind of crazy. Everybody wants to go see Hamilton because everybody wants to go see Hamilton.

I don't even care about seeing it, but my son thinks it would be cool, so we'll try to get tickets. Our New Years' resolution was to take advantage of the cultural offerings in this town more. So far, we're doing well on that front.

A friend of mine is a member, so he got through in the first round, and got me one of his four.

Having done the usual Wednesday morning trip into town for a spot of hunter gathering around Tesco, I was back early enough to go for a haircut before lunch.
The girl who cut my hair was cheerful, easy going and a delight to chat with.
I didn't have the heart to tell her that she'd parted my hair on the wrong side.

And I still left her a tip.
