You’ll get something like this again tonight at 11:59 thanks to my daily Twitter updates, but just wanted to put up a post letting everyone know the surgery is over and done with, and my “strapping young lad” (heh, thanks Veronica) did great. He’s sleeping on the couch now. I’m glad he managed to get to sleep, because he was in pain (which is to be expected). Debating over whether to wake him at 3:00 for another Percocet.
Everyone at Crawford Long was very nice and helpful (except for one nurse who acted like she wanted to get us out of there as soon as possible) and the doctor said he should be fine. So that’s the update!
While waiting at the hospital, I managed to finish reading Full Frontal Feminism. Review coming sometime this weekend, whenever I’m not compulsively cleaning. One of our windows won’t close all the way - converted industrial buildings have “charm” and “character,” you see - and a bunch of dust-like crap got inside on the furniture from where a crew was pressure-washing or something on the outside of the building, and it’s making me sneeze and generally pissing me off.
Off to tend to the patient now! :)

Glad everything came out so well. (pun intended) Time to hoist a beer in his honor!
glad it went well, get good quick, R-man!
To a pleasant and snag-free convalescence, Rusty.
My mother had a similar operation about a year ago.
Here’s hoping for a speedy recovery.
