Day 11 & 12

Day 11

I was too tired on day 11. I mostly don't remember it.

Day 12

I'm almost half way through my radiation treatments. I guess it'll be halfway when I'm halfway through tomorrow's treatment.

I realized today that I haven't shared something that I learned during one of my first treatments. When Roli is doing my treatment, there are certain places that his laser beam makes me smell & see things.

I totally thought my mask was burning (because of the laser beams of course) because it smelled weird. There are about 6 positions where Roli does his thing that make me smell something. To me, it smells like burning plastic. I think Stella described it as a smoggy smell.

I also totally thought that crazy random laser beams were blinding me. There are a few positions where a purple spectrum of color appears. At first I was afraid to open my eyes for fear that I would go blind (crazy random laser beams can do that, you know). When Stella told me that this is normal, I opened my eyes to try to see where Roli was positioned. When it's the smell, Roli is always in the same place. I haven't figured out just how the color spectrum works yet.

Stella says that some people taste metal in their mouths but that has not been the case for me.

And at work today, I took a photo of my vastly growing gi-nor-mous High School Musical "shrine" if you will.

This is the new wallet that Madisan gave me.

This is the corner.This is looking down the side of my desk to the corner. These photos don't really get all of the stuff, but you get the idea.

I think some of my most unique items would have to be mylar balloons (pre-inflation), bandaids, a box of valentines, a Troy Bolton necklace-watch, and a 3D book complete with 3D glasses. Oh and 2 things not on my desk at work are my lunch box (which I take to work every day) and my special HSM Build-a-Bear (that stays at home to remind me of how grateful I am for co-workers who love me).

Wow, I'm a dork. I do absolutely blame this on my co-workers however! If they weren't so danged fun with giving me stuff, I wouldn't have nearly as big (or awesome) collection.
