Off to Shanghai by "dynamic"train this time. It's called dynamic because every seperat carriage has its own engine.
The last time I travelled by train in China (or any country for that matter) Must have been 15 years ago.
At that time we'd be happy to have a hard seat between the folks who'd bring chickens and piglets, offering you tea from a dirty recycled jar and hardboiled 100year old eggs.

Old cars and trucks.

Made a short stop at a classic car meet just now. All pre 50's cars. The Mack fire truck was a nice and detailed restauration.

Cheaks on the prowl II

She: Why do you only take pictures of me when I look rediculous?

Me: Why not?

She: You never take pictures of me when I look nice!

Me: Oh, uh, ok.

Cheaks on the prowl

She's going to see a band called "the dike" ...??!

Seeing her like this just makes me think she's listening to a radio station in north Carolina.

Blogging ain't so funny after all...

Well the first day was fun. The second day is not turning out so well.
The day started with the usual office shit and then on top of that
my colleague informed us that her treatment against C booked no results.
Infact, it is worse than it was before and also showed up in her lungs.
1 year hopefully and chemo to try and stretch it...

So apart from this sucking big time there is the question; do I post stuff
like this or not?
On the 1 hand there is the privacy thing
On the other there is the awareness factor.
Does it help to post this? Does it help her?
Neh, whatever we do, it's not gonna make her feel better about leaving
life at such young age, leaving her young son and husband and mother.

This blog sucks! Life sucks! The whole world sucks!
