- Vox is starting to get boring again. Not a lot of updates, and honestly I'm not real motivated to post here either. I have another blog that I resurrected the later part of 08, but I don't like trying to maintain two blogs. But, I just might go back to posting there exclusively.
- Health wise - I'm doing wonderful! Still taking my Herceptin ever 21 days! If I didn't have the medi-port and had the need to visit the hospital for the one infusion I would feel 100% normal. I've been following up on the nodules identified on my thyroid during the PET and CT scans taken during my active breast cancer treatment. My Oncologist didn't think it was anything and wanted to wait until I finished the course of my treatment. I actually brought it up as I want to rule out any potential problems read:thyroid cancer. Had my first appointment with yet another Dr.M this morning. She was cool, a breast cancer survivor. She did a sonogram of the nodules on my thyroid and they drew blood to study my thyroid activity. There will probably be a specialize scan (forgot what she called it) and perhaps a biopsy. She told me she felt they were benign and that I shouldn't have anything to worry about.
- Well I have a long "to do" list for this month!!! The builder advised me that my new home will be completed on Feb 26th. So, one of the things I loathe - packing will have to start soon. Along with all the other tasks associated with a move. I'm excited! But this date actually caused me to cancel my plans to go to San Francisco for my birthday. Yea, its the exact week. But well worth it!
- Speaking of travel, I've decided to go to Australia this summer instead of Greece. I saw a program on television that featured Melbourne - LOVED IT!
- Been shopping for contemporary art and few specific pieces. I think I'm going to be painting a few on my own pieces. I forgot how expensive art supplies are though - MY GOSH! I don't know how/why I forgot considering T is a second year art major and I've had to buy her supplies every semester.
- One of my favorite shows is back! Nip Tuck! I think we are about 3 episodes into the new season. Christian has male breast cancer and of course he has turned it into way to get more sex! Whore! Loves it! Also, I watched RuPaul's new show "Drag Race" OMG! Some of them are a hott ass mess! His show should be interesting.
- Work is work. I'm blessed. I have work.
- Life is good!

Is a Cool Blue Raspberry Bubble Tea from Chill Bubble Tea. The store opened up a couple of months ago in a retail space in C's apartment building. She told me about how cute it was on the inside when she went to check it out after it opened. I just got a chance to visit for the first time about 3 weeks ago.
I tried the Cool Blue Raspberry with bubbles - LOVE AT FIRST SIP! Delicious! And so good, I can't get myself to try a different flavor. But better than that is the modern decor in that place! LOVES IT!

I can see President Obama in here :) He is stylish like that!
All electrical and plumbing fixtures were installed this week. The garage door and compressor were also installed - yeah!!!! Foxy got her number too. The door hardware and wood floors go in next week and if the weather holds up the driveway will be poured.
John Legend crooned to a full house at Nokia Live last night. It was my first time at that particular venue, although I have dropped T off a couple of times for concerts with friends. To my unpleasant surprise I had to pay $15 bucks to park! After returning from an ATM machine as C and I entered the parking lot there was a signed posted that Estelle, the scheduled opening act for John would not be performing. Instead it would be Vaughn Anthony - **first thought... who da F*&K is that?!
Anyway, after some well seasoned chicken strips and a overly priced mojito we made our way to the seats. Vaughn Anthony shortly appeared. After a few notes, C leaned over said "he trying to sound like John Legend!" I agreed. He wasn't bad, but thinking he was biting off John's sound was annoying! However, his songs started sounding pretty good, before I knew it - I was starting to like him. I later figured out why.... John Legend is his older brother! Anthony sings back up for John and is trying to get his career off the ground. Check him out here! Thanks for not showing up Estelle... I'm really not that into you anyway!
Well, the rule was no cameras or video allowed so I smuggled in my little Casio. Come to find out EVERYBODY had cameras! Wish I could of had my nice Cannon camera. Due to the lack of zoom, my pictures look crappy! I took some video, they are crappy too :) C's camera capture much nicer video which I'm posting.
He is a little fella in person! Ooooh his little lips are so cute (close ups thanks to the two jumbo screens). I'm gay... but this man's cuteness factor is off the hinges! Undeniable ador-a-bility :)
Thanks John! I enjoyed you!!!!
Foxy is coming along great! The base paint has been done, next will be the accent painting. Kitchen and bathroom back splashes started and the tile in the kitchen and bathroom started... This week the plumbing and electrical is going in. Hoping they start the hardwood flooring this week!
