Well, our friend in Farwell who fell on the ice at the office isn't doing well at all. He wasn't feeling too well afterwards (big surprise) and it turned out that he may have had a heart attack. Whether he did at the time is moot though, because his wife took him to Amarillo and while there he did indeed have one. They did the balloon bit to him, but he's still not feeling well. We're very worried about him.

Our neighbor is doing the chemo thing now. They had to take a lump out of his groin area - they found another one on his neck but it wasn't serious enough to remove and they're hoping the chemo will take care of it. He's going to be miserable, I know - a friend of mine back in the day had to do the chemotherapy bit and it was horrible. Hopefully our neighbor will pull out of it with only discomfort to bear.

And finally, our dog (well by now he was more the neighbor's dog) Oscar is dead. Now don't get all freaked, cuz our neighbor's son had to shoot him. Oscar was going blind, so blind in fact that he was running into cars. They figured this was much better than finding him splattered all over the road. (And believe me, we're surprised it didn't happen already, especially with the slick roads and big trucks.) We knew this was coming - he'd told us it would have to be done and we just told him to go ahead and let us know afterwards.

Now doesn't that just make your day feel special? Bleh, I think I'm going to glut myself on sugar now and pretend I didn't wake up.
