( Beeb article on new pancreatic cancer surgery )

I have both eating and drinking problems.

Specifically, today I appear to be incapable of eating or drinking anything really colorful without dropping it on my pants.

Black tea, at the crack of dawn.
An orange, earlier this morning.
Rigatoni with pesto, not 5 minutes ago.

Something tells me I should consume nothing but plain white rice and water for the rest of the day.

Except, of course, that means that if anybody else near me eats something colorful, it will somehow wind up splattered across my pants.

*sigh*

Yeah, Mondays.
