Been a while!

I am doing very well, the drain is out, the healing has begun, the strength is back, I have a few flexibility issues because of the scar tissue.

I scheduled mopey-ness in for this last weekend, and I feel better for it, a little bit of wallowing... but its good.

All sorts of fun sensation is returning to the breast area, I say that a bit sarcastically, since all day yesterday I thought there was a hair poking and tickling me, but no... just one regrown nerve. But I am more annoyed by my armpit scar... deeply deeply thankful they did not have to remove all of my lymph nodes... I would have been more annoyed then, but its stretchy sore, and a bit lumpy and I am timid about shaving there, and afraid to get it waxed. We will have to wait and see how that turns out.

Friday is my oncology consultation, I am hoping against hope that they say no radiatin for you... but its the standard of care, so, I am out of luck there... Not sure why I am set against it, except its bad for your heart... I know it is better than it used to be, and its not even going to be internal at all, but, still...

To be honest, a bit of my reluctance is I am afraid of fitting it in to my work schedule, and a bit of whether it will make me so tired I will need some help to do my job, the ridiculous part is, mostly I am afraid I will look weak... to myself.

But anyway.... work is going well, its the most boring show backstage ever, and the next show is going to be a crazy crazy train wreck... Mostly because we have no boss... they hired one, he starts August 25th... and now they are dilly dallying about getting an interim, while we break the ill equipt assistant production manager, who is beginning to look tramatized. It doesn't help that he was trained by the promise the moon, deliver nothing previous production manager. In the play coming up, which is a remount of sorts, (we have the same designers as New York and Chicago, and some of the same props and costumes) we have to make the bits that didn't get sent to us, and build the set (our stage architechture is very different). So, what we got to work with set wise were some poorly made draftings of the original set "photoshopped" into our stage, with no specifics, so our Technical Director - made his own adjustments for better or for worse. Our Prop Master (my half step to the side boss) only got boxes of props from the Chicago run, some bottles still filled with water, and pictures of the props from Chicago. Right before the holiday weekend, he found out that the designer was unhappy with what Chicago had changed in the props, and wanted everything to look like they had in New York... oh... but we have no drawings or pictures of what those looked like... good times.

Oh... and another thing. I am doing the breast cancer 5k on Sunday... I have 15 people on my team... which I think is Awesome!!!
