I'm doing well just now.

ok, so as you know; the biopsy came back with bad news. I'm looking at it as if the piece of me removed was sick and now it's out of me, so now it's just follow up/clean up.

I've told most of the people close to me, sparing mother of course, and a couple others, namely; Mark, Rod, Jodi,... I told work about it today, they are making arrangements for short term to be available to me on a moments notice to save my vac/holiday time. Everyone's been very supportive and positive and I'm glad for that, Thank you!

Friday, you know, I had a CAT scan, it was kind of disappointing; I thought it would be more exciting, but I just got to lay there and the bed just moves in and out of this ring that spins around you, scanning away... I have the pictures, but they are packaged in a special viewer application, so I'll try to make you guys a copy if you're interested. I'm speaking with the radiologist about it tomorrow. To my untrained eye it looked fine...

After I got the bad news I was pretty pissed/upset and just went home from work early. I told a few people who were following the whole thing closely and that included Lauren(for those of you who know the history between she and I, don't worry about it) who came and sat and talked with me for a while. She's insistent on joining me for many of the procedures... I'm not arguing much. She took me to the CAT scan and hung with me the rest of the day, took me to her families and fed me dinner.

Saturday I went to Boise State Vs U of O in Eugene; my buddy is an alumni and goes to every game. It's basically the only excuse he and I have to get together since he lives in TN. We got to visit and see a decent game, Boise won. I drove back that night and Sunday I just lazed around, watched movies, chatted with more people.

Overall I don't really feel like I have a whole lot of information to provide, but I'll do my best to keep you posted.
