Bits of beard on the floor

Exhibit A

Exhibit B

 

My beard's really letting me down today. Technically, it's letting more of itself down today. Being that the little beard hair bits that came off of where my finger is generally pointed in Exhibit A to the drain in Exhibit B. Of course these were not the only hairs to fall out, just the ones that let me realize that I am, in fact, losing all beard hair, too. Sigh...

Oh well. I guess I can deal with a change for the next year. I mean I've had the beard since when...was I a toddler when it came in? Anyway, other than the hair that I'm perpetually losing on a fairly consistent basis, I'm actually feeling really well lately. I've been more full of energy; in fact, I've even found myself getting bored lately! So I've actually been feeling well enough to be able to have an actual social life (which is nice).

So I've been able to do some fun things lately. Such as going to a Chattahoochee Gold swim team reunion.Being really close to for three or four years, but then not seeing them--at all--for 15 years was weird. Like we're best friends that haven't been allowed to hang out for the past decade and a half. The only weird part was that I was bringing my brain cancer there, too. A little bit of a let down I think for most people. There was no other way to handle it though. 

"Oh look it's Dave. What've you been up too?"

"I was living in Philly and having a really good time. Then for no reason at all, I just decided to move home and live at my parents' house." Yeah, that wouldn't work. 

Oh and I've also found out that I will probably be next in line for $446 per month of disability dollars. I mean that's great. I get paid for doing nothing! I'm not really sure how I feel about this. I kind of feel like I'm a deep south hillbilly just livin off thu guberment. Maybe I'll go get me a piece of hay and some long-johns and prop myself up on the front porch with my ukemelele, g'yuh.
