FCKuCANCER.

y’all i swear i wouldn’t believe half the shit that happens to me if i hadn’t lived it. i’ve got another story to tell and it’s hilarious.

but first, cancer.

so my pet scan happened. i went through the normal rigmarole of the radioactive dye injection and such. nothing out of the ordinary. received the scan results and yup the scanxiety was for not. nothing has changed from the last scans…still no active disease. thank goodness. y’all keep sending those prayers up. they are definitely being heard.

ok, so i have declared 2022 the year of the bucket list. so all of my effort is going into crossing as many things as i can off the list. one of my items is to “lighten up”. i’m a work in progress, y’all.

so ever since nye, me and zubeda have been attempting to have a night life. we have been going out on dates and such. as much as we can but still being safe in these COVID-times. our nights usually begin the same way…zubeda comes over, we hop into my car, go to the gas station, then off into the night.

so one of the gas station employees seems to have a bit of a crush on me. it’s cute. it’s harmless, it’s like a thing now. we gas up, he comes out to speak to us, says pleasantries, and then we leave.

well this night in particular our order was off. i met zubeda out. she uber’d to the spot. we had our drinks, then met the gentlemen at another spot. had tapas, and more drinks. had fun. night ended. we drove home.

on the way home, we stopped at the gas station. i have been on this nerd cluster/rope binge and i was craving some. so instead of just pumping and then leaving, i pumped then headed inside to search for nerds. well, as per usual, stationguy is working so we start talking. y’all i can’t tell you wtf we were talking about, i do not remember. but i do remember it was a heated exchange. he said some ridiculous view and there we were having an all out discussion in the gas station at god-knows-what-time of early am. we laughed. i went back to the car, nerdless, they didn’t have any, and that’s where things went full-anna.

y’all. as soon as i pulled off there was a loud crash of sorts. me and zubeda looked at one another like…

then station guy looked at me through the glass like…

then i looked back at him like…

y’all. i forgot i was pumping gas. i smooth pulled off without taking the dispenser gun-thingy out of my tank. that crashing sound was the sound of the pump hose yanking out of the pump. i ran to the other side of my car, pulled the gun-thingy out of my tank. ran it back and put it on the holder and basically did this to the guy…

he came outside and reconnected the hose to the gun thingy. we all laughed, and then i pulled off for real. without incident.

needless to say, we haven’t been back to that station.
