Sandi's Lament: Weirdest National Anthems...
http://sandislament.blogspot.com/2015/04/weirdest-national-anthems.html
Random musings on any number of topics, inspired by real life. Monday, April 27, 2015. Last night, while waiting for the Yankees-Mets game to start, I watched the pre-game activities, which included a beautifully rendered version of our national anthem. Sung by Glee star and Broadway performer Matthew Morrison. Well, other than the Star Speckled Banana being difficult to sing, the lyrics are all about bombs and war and bloodshed - and not in a good way. I'd recommend " America, the Beautiful. Though it p...

Sandi's Lament: May 2015

Random musings on any number of topics, inspired by real life. Friday, May 29, 2015. What's a Foodie to Do? When I learned that my life span was being cut severely and that I had approximately a year to live, I decided to hell with "healthy" eating habits. I was going to eat what I want, when I want. It was a decision that played out well over the first few months. Traveling through Europe was a gastronomic delight! Did I scarf down an entire plates of pasta in Italy? I even designed My Last Supper.

Sandi's Lament: Never Speak Ill of the Dead???
http://sandislament.blogspot.com/2015/05/never-speak-ill-of-dead.html
Random musings on any number of topics, inspired by real life. Monday, May 18, 2015. Speak Ill of the Dead? It's been three weeks since I last posted. Wow. Probably my longest dry spell. But it's hard to feel motivated while lying on your brother's couch feeling like shite! Hopefully, now that I'm feeling a wee bit better these days, I'll have more motivation and can get back on track with my observations. Everyone's heard that old aphorism "never speak ill of the dead" ( De mortuis nil nisi bonum. I wil...

http://sandislament.blogspot.com/2013/10/my-last-supper.html
Random musings on any number of topics, inspired by real life. Sunday, October 13, 2013. Let's say you could predict the end of your life. Here's the scenario: after a hundred healthy years on this Earth, you know that on a certain date, after you've gone to bed, you would just pass on to your next life: what would your last supper be the night before? Once I got my cancer diagnosis, I started thinking about this question. Yeah, okay, I admit it - I'm a foodie! And here's my wish menu:. If it's going to ...

Random musings on any number of topics, inspired by real life. Wednesday, April 22, 2015. Not the Life I Imagined. I didn't quite get my dream life, but added to not quite getting everything - I got a whole boat load of crap. Last night, as I lay in bed in excruciating pain - waiting for the meds to kick in, I was struck by how truly fucked up my life is. All I kept thinking is "why is everything so difficult? How do I avoid sinking further into a hole and not spend my time wallowing in self misery?

Random musings on any number of topics, inspired by real life. Tuesday, June 9, 2015. The Much Ado About Nothing Cancer Update. This morning, I had a message from a friend stating that she hadn't seen any updates from me in awhile and asking how I was fairing. It occurred to me that I should probably update people even when there is not much to update on the cancer front. Read, nap, read some more, nap, watch Judge Judy. Or perhaps: wake up, watch The Today Show. That's it for the Much Ado update. It has...
