Well hey! I'm still here, just really busy. In fact, I'm working on a speech called "Don't Let Your Sanity Check Bounce" right now. I'm giving that speech as an audition on Friday and ran across this game we love to play. Here's how it goes: You just won $50 million in the lottery. What …
On your mark!
Get ready. Set. Walk! That's right, Team AC/DT (Abernethy Cancer Dream Team) is going to tear up the asphalt! We are going to walk so fast and beat the clock during our untimed race. Pretty sure there won't be any Olympic fist pumping action with all those people. Plus, wearing a mullet wig might cause …
Bald is the New Bling
http://youtu.be/UJYgypiryvU Thought you guys would enjoy some jokes from my "Laughter is the Best Medicine" speech I did at SW Medical Center. My friend David sent me a link to a new book called Bald Mermaid. The author says a whole different group of men hit on her when she was bald. How come I …
Hi, Honey, I’m home!
The kids went to camp; we went on vacation. We needed a reset and hours of uninterrupted conversation. We took the dog with us. For the first two nights, it was like having a two-year-old jumped up on espresso...in a cage. She calmed down when we let her sleep with us. Very romantic. When we …

Done! Done! Done!

Back awaay from the keyboard
And the oven. And the car. Five weeks of radiation has finally taken its toll. Yesterday, I sent out an email to everyone I know, including the entire elementary school list, vowing to: "increase the changes that another family will get breast cancer." Nice. While I was at it, I spelled my own Race for …
It’s PMS983
There's a new color where I've been getting radiated on one side of my chest and under my arm. It's like busted-up plum/got fried in a microwave. The worst part is it itches like crazy. But if you succumb to going all Wolverine and scratching it, the entire thing erupts in burning. I put the …
Talk squawky to me
I love a bitch fest as much as the next guy. So why am I not feeling the phone vibrating my ear drums as I hear about another less-than-cranial move by a husband? Where's all the talk about parenting angst and general unhappiness? And what about the searing deception when movie boyfriends suddenly get married? …
