The Pros and Cons of Blogging

Pro: I don't have to have the same conversation over and over again, i.e., "How are you feeling?" "How many treatments do you have left?" and instead can talk with people about other stuff like, y'know, life.

Con: People read the blog and know what's going on with me and so don't actually call or e-mail. (Ok, so "people" is a bit of an overstatement. Some folks have been commenting, e-mailing and/or calling and for that I thank you. It's the lurkers I'm talking to here...)
