For those of you who follow my cancersploits and were wondering how my battery of scans from the other day turned out: a big old nugatory on all fronts.
I post this because I have noticed a marked tendency among the more melodramatically-inclined sector of the blametariat to speculate, in the absence of specific information to the contrary, that I am dead or dying.
Not yet, apparently.
Thanks to you all for your interest in my tumors and in my continued existence.
This post is so odd, there are no related essays.

Great news, and I think you might owe that giant magical cancer-repressing pink credit card at Barton Creek Mall an apology.

Good stuff.
Now, how about the occasional picture of a kickass and colorful vegetarian meal?

That’s good news!
I do, however, regret to inform your more melodramatically inclined blametariat that you are dying, as are we all. The only question is how fast.
I know this kind of shit, because I am a fucking medical school professor.

Very good news, Twisty. Melodramatic or not, we really want you to thrive.

Yeah, good, but do you glow in the dark? Melodramatic minds want to know.

hoo! (I’d give you a full woo-hoo, but there were so many un-hooed woos at a concert I attended last summer, I fear for the health of the atmosphere unless I use up some of those hoos.)
On second thought, I can just use up a bunch of those hoos right here, in order to properly display my excitement.

Way to go, Twisty. {sigh of relief} Every year out reduces the risk. My app’t is next Friday. Fingers crossed.

To shamelessly plug my blog, I present the requested photo of “kickass and colorful vegetarian meal”. I think it’s appropriate to this blog to provide a picture of a vegan tostada.

I’m so glad to hear that Twisty received the all-clear. Without this blog, I have no idea what I’d do at work.

Very glad to hear of your continued well-being.
After all, where would we all be without our Blamer-in-Chief?

As Merriam-Webster quoth, “w00t!”
You have made a lot of women stronger-minded, the least we can do is try to return the favor. I bet you never thought you’d have cheerleaders!

You’re welcome.
P.S. I love the song AND video (except for the tawdry women)of RickRoll’D. Is it supposed to be a gaff on dorks, or something, because I freely admit that I am a dork.
