Don’t be!
I was sitting here doing everything but writing on my IPAD and, slacker that I am, thought I’d take pictures of my room. Because I probably find weird things funny. Like, my chemo treatment is the color of cherry kool-aid:
And, not so coincidentally, so is my pee (no pic of that…unless requested. If you request it, I am going to tell EVERYONE you did. So think CAREFULLY!)
So I clicked that picture. And then I was like trying to figure out how to steal this:
Which brought me to my sock, which I was like…these socks are really cool.
As you can see my hubby is here, gaming while I chemo and do fuckall write. I then grin, because a) he’s hot and b) he came here after working the night shift to sit here with me and c) THIS:
MATCHING SOCKS!
Much like Austin, I have the attention span of a gnat.

Hope you can see the photo. I posted this on Eddy Izzzard’s FB page. It combines the flag with his skit on British movies vs US movies in Dress to Kill. If you haven’t seen it, go buy it now. 🙂

I’m glad chemo hasn’t affected your brain 🙂 it’s still as whacked up as ever 🙂
Dani Alexander
I’m pretty sure it’s MORE whacked up =D. At least, the hubs tells me so!
Anitha
I hope its definitely MORE, especially when i’m looking forward to reading NSI. I’ll be disappointed if you’d suddenly gained normalcy 😛
P.S when is it comin out anyway?
stacy
Good to read your sense of humor remains the same, and YAY for Hubby!
Meanwhile I’m off to read (for the infinityith time) the excerpt for NSI…keep us posted!
Dani Alexander
=D I will, Stacy. I hope the re-read of the prologue was good for the infinityith time!

Dani, I finished reading shattered glass jus weeks ago,and i still cant get it out of my head…I LOVED IT. im a 24 year old girl living in iran( grew up in england,currently live in iran) any way its hard to find books here,libraries dont have foreign books specially books that are mm or any sexuality in that case..so i went through a lot of trouble to get your book..and it was worth the trouble..oh and most sites are filtered here in iran so i couldent download the ebook ..but eventually i got the book..any way…THANK YOU for your humorous writing..
Corey
omg… if jamaica filtered my sites i’d go crazy.
Dani Alexander
Iran! Wow. It’s a beautiful country by the pictures i’ve seen. I’m sure it is extremely difficult to find books there =( Thank you for going to the trouble of getting my book. I”m so glad you enjoyed it and were able to read it!

Dani, I just finished reading Shattered Glass over the weekend and wanted to say thank you, thank you, thank you. It was funny and sexy and romantic and touching and quirky and all those other adjectives that pull me into a story and never lets me go until the last word. To use an overused movie line, you had me at “he was wearing bunny
slippers.” For someone like me who barely can write a sentence beyond a noun and verb, I’m in awe of what you created. I’ve been reading m/m romance for little over a year and I have to say that this is by far one of the best I’ve read. In fact, I’m putting it in my top three favorites.
As a reader, there is nothing more delightful than to find a book that you know that no matter when you read it, whether it be in two weeks, two months or two years, you’re going to get the same pleasure reading it as you did the first time. No, more so because it’s like catching up with old friends. This one is definitely staying on the Kindle.
Again, thank you for such a wonderful gift. Be well.
Dani Alexander
Oh wow, this is a lovely post that just made my entire day. Thanks so much for writing it. <3 My grin hurts a little, but totally worth it!
jude
You sound good. Wishing you the best and here this
Dani Alexander

Maureen

Dani Alexander
I’m getting better, no worries <3 Thanks. I AM lucky =D
Marleen
I have those socks in purple and black and I don’t even know where they came from. They just appeared in the laundry about a month ago and none of the 4 dudes I live with would own up them being theirs so now they are mine!
Dani Alexander
We now have those socks in purple, Lena. I think it’s like fate or something that you have them too hah! We could post our sock pictures together. (that didn’t sound as dirty as I meant it >8( )
Marleen
Ok, NOW I AM WORRIED. Dani can’t come up with filthy innuendo. He must be close to death.
Dani Alexander
Oh I can come UP with a lot of things =D I’m not close to death, I’m chowing down on homemade slurpees and water crackers. =D

I agree with Gigi, Laugh, sarcasm an (m/m) porn… nectar of the gods.
Go Dani!! xoxo
Dani Alexander
Well, you have to agree with that…if we’re not abou tporn and sarcasm, we’re not alive!
Claudia
Matching socks are a real achievement. I’m often too lazy to look for the other one if it’s not right there and just pick another one with a color that goes well with it (like ducks on blue ground and pandas on green ground).^^
Keep your chin up! b(^-^)d
hannah martin
That is soooo freaking hot!!
Dani Alexander
Now THAT is some lovely picturing to come back to.
S A Meade
Heck, Dani, I didn’t even know you were ill. I’ve been wondering where you’d got to. The socks are lovely. Hurry up and get better! xxx
Dani Alexander
Thanks SA =D
hannah martin

Dani Alexander
My humor would hold up posthumously. Trust me! LOL <3 thanks for the cheering.
Antonio
I cannot believe you wear those socks and feel ashamed of yourself lol I’m very glad you are feeling so well as of post mementos like these. Keep smiling. We are all with you
I just hope your hospital is better than this one he he he
Dani Alexander
There are some incredible nurses at this hospital, so it makes it awesome.
carnell
I’m not worried anymore!!! 😉
Your post made me smile… Stay strong Dani!!
Dani Alexander
Glad it did =D It was supposed to <3
gigi
Laughter they say is the best medicine.(Or in my case sarcasm) Well, that and porn. Oh wait….I made the porn part up but it’s fun too!
I think a sock contest is in order and I have a lovely pair with The Grinch on them. Now that I think about it, I wonder if my mother in law was trying to tell me something when she gave them to me.
Dani Alexander
Sarcasm/porn/laughter it’s all good! Bring it on =D LOL She has good taste, your mother in law. I LOVE the Grinch.
