On a totally different note, I just have to say my peace about something. This month is October (duh) it's also breast cancer awareness month. I fully support breast cancer, and think it's a horrible, terrible disease. But I can't help but wonder why breast cancer gets so much hype? There are many many other types of cancer, yet this one in particular gets all the glory. I don't really get it. I know breast cancer is just as serious, and is probably among the top things that kills women (next to heart disease). When I see all the NFL football players go all out to wear all the pink, it does make me just a tad bit mad. Breast cancer is one of the most survived cancers of them all, and it is the most funded. So why don't we focus our efforts on another type of cancer? Again, I'm glad that the funding has happened for breast cancer, that is probably why they have been able to save people's lives...through all the research and whatnot. I'm just ready for everyone to focus on all the other cancers and help fund and support those too.
