Tech vs UVA

Go Hokies! I'm down in Blacksburg and we're celebrating our big win against UVA! It was an ugly game - we had the yards but had the hardest time getting the ball in the end zone. But we won, yippee! And now we go to the ACC Championship, either to play BC or Florida State. We'll know in about 15 minutes who it is. We lost to both teams earlier this year, so it would be nice to come out of the ACC game with a win.

It was a bit chilly out today. I was warmly dressed, but towards the end of the game I was getting quite cold. Luckily it didn't start sleeting/raining until we were back at the tailgate, so I was able to get warm again with the help of Mr. Heater.

Food is still tasting pretty bad, but the meds help a bit. I had a few beers yesterday, and several jello shots today, which were very yummy! But tomorrow I go back on the other meds, so no more alcohol for at least 3 months. How sad.

Otherwise, I'm doing okay. I have some numbness in my hands and feet. And of course I'm still tired a lot, but I'm trying to accept that. It's hard at times. I know the next 3 months will be difficult as this set of treatments is supposed to make me even more tired. So I'm trying to really cut down on lots of my activities and just concentrate on getting through this as best as possible.

It looks like we'll be playing BC next weekend, for the second year in a row. Let's hope the outcome will be the same!
