    voraciousreader-

    I will bring real drinks for the toast, never drank much before cancer, but got BC anyway, so now I may just take up drinking, smoking and gain some weight.  I got lots of unused nausea meds for the fire too.  I am going to sell my narcotics on the street so I have more money for the booze.

    Christine - Welcome to the bonfire.  It is a warm, comforting place to come to.  Sure feels good to throw in all the bc crap.  I will be alongside voraciousreader and we will help you get rid of all the pick stuff.  I don't want you to get too close and burn yourself.

    If I get too close my wig might melt.  Thanks for all the help. Good to come somewhere for fun, rather than talking about side effects.  It was a long winter. You ladies are a hoot.

    Thankyou all for the warm welcome!  Again so happy to be done with chemo and have some fun.  I will be looking for you all again soon, no worries I got alot of stuff for that fire.  Do TEs burn or just melt??

    I read a post from a BCO sister whose (synthetic) wig melted a little when she opened her oven at home.  Apparently, human hair wigs are made of stronger stuff..?  At any rate, you're right to be concerned about the bonfire!

    Synthetic wigs do burn easier than human hair - that is why they are not as expensive.  Wig alert!!! Don't get too close to the fire please.  Voraciousreader and I will toss in your stuff.  Then you can all join us for smores.  I brought enough for everyone.

    Yep! Hauling the stuff will be good therapy for my fixed shoulder! Gotta keep moving it!!! I am thinking of putting up a volleyball net. Wouldn't that be fun to do?

    I wanna throw in thr looks I get from distant cousins.   I did need your better then me looks.back then.. I dint need then now either,  I would rather you look at me and say nothing.  Trust me I would be tickled pink if ya did.  So here I throw in my fake cousins into the fire.  They all have very over the top egos, so they will burn hard, please stand back ladies.  Enjoy the heat!

    I don't even need a sports bra for volleyball, my TEs don't bounce.  You all want me on your team, my right arm is still numb, so I can really wack that ball.

    Love it!  Founding member of girls varsity volleyball in HS after Title IX enacted in 1972. 

    But now I have nice soft virtual sand to land on, can we play barefoot?

    And hey don't we all look great in our virtual bathing suits!  Wink

    OMG just found this thread!!  Yay!  I was going to ask if it's OK to toss a person in the bonfire, and then I saw YES, IT'S OK!  So, I'm tossing my ex into the fire.  He walked away right after the lumpectomy.  Burn, baby, burn!!

    I will also toss in:

    my appointment book - I'm sick of keeping track of appointments 

    the flowers - looks like a funeral home around here

    that stupid little heart shaped pillow they gave me at the hospital - makes me feel decrepit

    the sexy (and supportive!) nightie I just bought - he left anyway, so why night just be comfortable

    Thanks for the bonfire!!  Ahhhh...that feels pretty good.

    Jo... You can do better. We need a few more boy toys! And they can help with the fire and the gardening too! And wouldn't it be grand if they toasted our marshmallows and served us our drinks and put sunscreen on our backs??? Yippee for the bonfire!

    I just threw all those B/C statistics I have read over the past two years onto the bonfire.  I got tired of keeping them in my head.  They went up like hundreds of little fireflies.
