- how to spell pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis
- how to use that word in a sentence for the "please write a sentence here" section of my patient neuro test form
- mental rehearsal of upcoming Messiah arias
- decide: what joke should I share in the chemo infusion room (the one that always comes to mind is: Q. "What is an insomniac dyslexic agnostic?" A. "Someone who stays up all night wondering if there is a Dog.")
- mental review of karate Pinions # 1, 2, and 3; defense maneuvers # 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, and 18; and kempos A, B, C, D, and E.
- brainstorm ideas for my "can't buy it" Christmas present for my husband (our annual tradition)
- brainstorm ideas for celebration activity if we get good news
- create mental picture of healthy glial cells holding up a sign during the MRI that says, "Really, guys -- it's all clear here!!!"
- construct mental list of words that seem to contradict their own meaning (like "phonetic", "abbreviated", and "monosyllabic")
- try to remember the list of the 2-letter words that are legal in Scrabble
- debate practice -- which was named "orange" first: the color, or the fruit? (pick one and defend)
- sing the alphabet backwards (my son and I like to do this for grins)
- decide: which of the dozen books I have in embryo form will actually become a manuscript
- ponder: why do bats have nipples under their armpits?
- happy picture slideshow: my son's grin with his two front teeth missing, my daughter in her new saddle shoes (like the ones I used to love wearing as a kid) and my husband's happy face when he comes home after driving around in Mustang Krista and says, "I love my car!!"
...and, of course--try to count all the prayers that will carry me through this process.
