#RFGoNaked Day on 25 July 2014 Who's up for the challenge? I'm posting my pic!
Is this how Comcast keeps customers? Good to know...I'm not even sure if this poor guy's service was cancelled since he wasn't even given a confirmation. I'm sure the CSR's badgering doesn't lend to the warm feeling of "trustworthy" or "ethical"... Please note: this conversation starts about 10 minutes in — by this point my wife and I are both completely flustered by the oppressiveness of the rep. So! Last week my wife called to disconnect our service with Comcast after we switched to another provider (Astound). We were transferred to cancellations (aka “customer retention”). The representative (name redacted) continued aggressively repeating his questions, despite the answers given, to the point where my wife became so visibly upset she handed me the phone. Overhearing the conversation, I knew this would not be very fun. What I did not know is how oppressive this conversation would be. Within just a few minutes the representative had gotten so condescending and unhelpful I felt compelled to record the speakerphone conversation on my other phone. This recording picks up roughly 10 minutes into the call, whereby she and I have already played along and given a myriad of reasons and explanations as to why we are canceling (which is why I simply stopped answering the rep’s repeated question — it was clear the only sufficient answer was “Okay, please don’t disconnect our service after all.”). Please forgive the echoing and ratcheting sound, I was screwing together some speaker wires in an empty living room!
My Story: My Pops' Last Stand Against Cancer
In March of this year, I lost my friend, my Pops after a long courageous battle with cancer. I created this blog to not only as a cathartic outlet for myself, but also to share our journey with our battle with cancer. Nowadays, you hear on the TV or through social media of people who are affected by cancer in some way. This is our story, this is my Pops, he isn't just a statistic, this is his last courageous stand against cancer.
My Pops is a fighter, courageous and brave in his journey and battle against lung cancer, throat cancer, and finally a recurrence of lung cancer in his remaining lung. But throughout his journey, there were many ups, many downs, but there was always lots laughter and lots love.
We were told by the hospice workers or "Earth Angels" as they should be called, to expect to experience the stages identified in the grieving process. The process is identified with 5-stages, the first stage is Denial & Isolation; second is Anger; third is Bargaining; fourth is Depression; and lastly, fifth is Acceptance. Funny, but I didn't experience all of these stages or in any specific order, but I know I had already come to accept the inevitable.
Looking back since his passing, as those days turned into weeks and the weeks turned into months, I realize that I spend less time thinking about my Pops, not because I miss him any less, but I think it's because my mind is finally adjusting to the fact that there aren't any more doctor's appointments or thinking about if we are well enough to go to the park with the dogs and have a bento on the bench watching the waves or planning that fishing day that he wanted to do.
Today I still touch his urn when I get up in the morning to greet him and bid him a "Good Morning", the same goes for my night time ritual as well. It has gotten more routine now that I don't expect to wake up and see him at the computer or sitting in his chair reading the paper or just being there.
Funny, I think my mind has been split into 2. It seems now I have a wishful and a logical mind. My logical mind has accepted the fact that my dad has passed, he is no longer in pain, he is free from all of the constraints he faced while being here in the physical world. But my wishful mind thinks he's still here, maybe he's in the hospital and hasn't come home yet or out on a fishing trip or something else. My wishful mind can keep on coming up with excuses, but my logical mind always wins. Sometimes I hate my logical mind, especially when I start to feel that crushing feeling in my chest, my eyes feel heavy and burn a little, then as my tears start to fall. I realize I need to invest in waterproof make-up now.
i'm just so proud of my Pops. He had fought so hard, so long against cancer. To me, he will always be my friend, my father, my hero who helped shape me into the person I am today, and an important pillar in my world.
As much as I miss him, I wouldn't bargain for additional time. Although I don't feel as though the time we had was nearly enough and with that I know that I am just a greedy daughter. But if given the chance to have had more time with him, my answer will always be "No.". I wouldn't want my Pops to suffer any longer. I would want him to be free of all of those tubes and be able to eat whatever he wanted and enjoy it. So yeah, I'm the type of girl who wants her cake and eat it too - greedy, but with standards.
There is a poem by Helen Steiner Rice that best fits my Pops' personality. I shall end this blog with it as I can find no other good way to end with. I hope you enjoy it as much as my family and I do.
MISS ME - BUT LET ME GO
When I come to the end of the road And the sun has set for me. I want no rites in a gloom-filled room. Why cry for a soul set free?
Miss me a little but not too long, And not with your head bowed low. Remember the love that we once shared. Miss me, but let me go.
For this is a journey we all must take. And each must go alone. It's all a part of the Master's Plan, A step on the road to home.
When you are lonely and sick of heart Go to the friends we know. And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds. Miss me - but let me go.
- Helen Steiner Rice -

Razor burn...it isn’t just a guy issue.
It's summer and you've been working out and making sure you are ready to hit the beach in the cute bikini you just bought. But...make sure you look great by getting rid of those razor bumps or red, irritated skin from waxing.
Rodan + Fields has created the Soothe products to treat sensitive, irritated skin - but it doesn't just have to be on your face! To get rid of irritated skin due to shaving or waxing, use the R+F ENHANCEMENTS Body Micro-Dermabrasion, which works as a therapeutic, multi-benefit skin treatment that exfoliates, cleanses and conditions the skin. Then follow up with the SOOTHE Sensitive Skin Treatment that helps to interrupt the inflammatory cascade to promote smooth, clear, healthy-looking skin.
You can also include the use of the SOOTHE Gentle Cream Wash to act as an ideal shaving cream. It acts as a cleanser of skin impurities and works as a nurturing barrier to help support your skin's recovery and resiliency.

Fun In The Sun, Why Aren't You Protected?
In the 80’s people were going to the beach and slathering on the coconut oil for sun bathing while leaving greasy streaks in the water as they went to cool off.
In the 90’s we heard about how the ozone layer was thinning and we started to worry about over exposure to the bad UV rays.
In the 2000’s we became more concerned about skin cancers, lost elasticity in our skin, wrinkles, and brown spots.
The number one concern for aging is due to sun damage…
Did you know that by the age of 30, most people already have some visible signs of sun damage? This includes skin dullness and discoloration, brown spots, less than youthful looking skin, and freckles (and yes, no one is born with them…they only appear on the skin that has been exposed to the sun).
Did you also know that 100% of visible sun damage is REVERSIBLE? Yes, reversible…so it’s never too soon or too late to change your skin’s destiny.
Born and raised in Hawaii, you can pretty much guess my sun exposure is a good 90%…okay, maybe 92% (we do have an occasional cloud or two you know). One of my most favorite products is the Rodan + Fields REVERSE Regimen. The REVERSE Regimen is made by the same two dermatologists that have made a huge impact in the skin care industry with ProActiv, an acne treatment.
Clinical studies have shown after 8-wks of use of the REVERSE Regimen, participants have shown:
92% experienced an improvement in brightness 92% experienced an improvement in smoothness 84% experienced a reduction in brown spots 76% experienced more even skin tone 60% experienced an improvement in fine lines
In my case, I used the REVERSE Regimen along with the REDEFINE Macro Exfoliator to help accelerate the effectiveness of the skin brightening products. I personally started to notice visible changes in my skin’s appearance from the second week of use. My skin looked more radiant, the skin tone looked more even, and some of my freckles didn’t look as prominent.
Because I also like to stay active and do a lot of outdoor activities, I also use the Essentials Broad Spectrum SPF30 Sunscreen.
I love this sunscreen because it provides me adequate protection while being water-resistant (stays on while I sweat), it is lightweight, non-sticky and non-greasy.
Then to follow up after a full fun day out in the sun, nothing is better than replenishing my body’s moisture with the Essentials Daily Body Moisturizer.
And just like the sunscreen, its formula is lightweight and non-greasy with a faint scent that doesn’t overpower the olfactory sensors. This moisturizer is just as effective for people living in dry and cold climates as well, since it contains humectants to rehydrate the skin and dimethicone to help repair the skin’s natural moisture barrier. In plain english, it means that it will absorb quickly to smooth and soften rough, dry, bumpy skin - leaving you feeling moisturized all day long.
