Yeah, I'm so great at remembering anniversaries that I even forgot the anniversary of my cancer diagnosis.

I blame.... chemo brain! 😂

Yeah, it was on Nov 17th 2020 that they performed the brain biopsy that diagnosed me with a PCNS lymphoma. The next day, the oncologist they had assigned to me gave me the news. I gave my assent to treatment, and they immediately rolled me from neurology to oncology because I was *this* close to being dead.

We started chemo. After two rounds of it, I entered remission, but I had to go through all 8 rounds of it (or 9 rounds depending on how you count), and later I had a stem cell transplant.

Five years after this ordeal, I'm still alive. 🥳

I forgot I had bought breadcrumbs about a month ago, and almost bought more. It would have been a disaster!

I forgot to report earlier, but I think Milkshake (Maddox's pre-shelter name) has learned how to move the toilet seat up, because when I went to look this morning it was up!!!

But I put it down last night! Gotcha, dastardly cat!

😱

:catthinking:

Or did I? Maybe I just forgot to put it down. :headache:

This just happened. I went to the kitchen to get a snack. I came back to my desk and ate my granola bar.

When I'm done, I look down, and I see a banana.

:catthinking:

We're in the afternoon... did I not eat my morning banana? Or did I just absent-mindedly grab a banana with my granola bar? I bring the banana back to the kitchen, and realize that I did indeed grab a banana absent-mindedly, thinking for a second that it was morning.

Yeah... I tell people to set their language properly when they post here, and what do I do?

I forget to set it.

:headache:

At any rate, it is fixed now.

My phone rings to remind me to take my medicine.

I get up and pick up my glass because I'm going to need water too.

I go to the kitchen, refill the glass, park my butt back on the chair and realize that I did not take my pill.

😩

So when I went to the grocery store yesterday, I looked at the muffins and I thought maybe I'd get the banana nut ones, under the notion that they'd be less calories than the triple chocolate ones...

However, lo and behold, the triple chocolate ones were 10 calories less per muffin than the banana nut ones. So I got the triple chocolate ones.

So sue me, I'm a #chocolate lover. 😋

A few minutes ago I thought about my afternoon snack and thought that I remembered having tossed the #muffin container, but that was a fabricated memory because there was still one muffin in the container and the container was sitting on the fridge.

So I'm going to have it now. 🤤
