I’m sitting down for a big bowl of pozole at the new supermercado in town. A neighbor spots me, parks her cart, and sits down beside me. Asks how chemo is. Asks if I’m going to al anon. Asks if I need anything. I set down my book. “This pozole recipe” is all I can come up with.

Sat down at Frenchman’s and saw an old friend and colleague from my days doing marketing for Surly Bikes at QBP. He’d just finished a 10-hour run. I had just finished a burrito.

Last week I had my first PET scan since starting treatment for adenocarcinoma of the colon.

If you'd asked me last week I would've picked Carter for St. Paul and someone new for Minneapolis. Shows what I know! FWIW my zip code is Richfield and that's where I try to keep my focus. Ask me about our roundabouts.
