What a bunch of crap....guess FB or some other site will be the "social networking site" ...

My life: Apparently I have not posted anything here in several MONTHS...which is a circumstance I never envisioned, but then fighting cancer tends to change one's perspective.
Thankfully I can report I am so far over 6 months free of the cursed disease, after surgery, chemo and radiation. I managed to lose a lot of weight during those dark days, but then again not being able to eat does that for you.
Early on in my treatment, they said while the chemo/radiation would not cause my hair to fall out, I should consider cutting it because during the radiation, my head needed to be in the exact same place everyday, and my ponytail might interfere with that. So I went had it cut really short, in a pixie.
Turns out I didn't need to do that, since the technicians doing my radiation said i could have simply not worn a ponytail and it would have been fine. Too late.
So now 7 months later my hair is barely over my ears, and looks better much crappy everyday.The good part is that I don't care that much, if at all. So what, big deal.
Work Life: I returned to work in late February, and at first it was tough, but eventually got back into the groove as it is. Now I am treated pretty much like I was before I took my little 3 month sabbatical. Which means that besides supervising my staff of 5, my boss delegates all the meeting proposals he gets to me, so he can fiddle around in his office doing who knows what. Mostly reading or watching videos on his laptop....there, i said it, he's a (bigger than me) goof off...BUT then again, if anything hits the fan, he catchs it.
Fortunately for him me and the staff are pretty good at our jobs.
Today, just a few minutes ago, I got another of what now must be 20 emails about the new CEO I have received in the last 2 weeks. You would think this woman is a miracle worker, the praise is so deep. I can only imagine how quickly that will fade if the directors don't see the expected improvements.
Unrelated events: Ever hear of a Assistant Secretary of Broadband and Digital Literacy? Well apparently the State of California appointed a woman to that job recently, according the the news on TechWire. Not sure what she will be doing for that $126,000 a year salary (btw, thats $10,500 a MONTH to you and me).
Thanks for reading this
