surgical notes

Surprise! I don’t usually post on Sunday nights, but here I am. Actually, I’m just posting a quickie to let you know (if you don’t already) that I’m scheduled for minor surgery first thing tomorrow morning. Don’t worry, it’s not cosmetic, I’m not coming home with a new nose. And it’s nothing too serious. But because I always try to be as honest as I can here, I will admit that I’m scared. Terrified, actually. I know everyone says this, but I really hate detest abhor despise loathe hospitals. In spite of that, I think I’m doing a pretty good job staying calm for the most part. Admittedly, I haven’t stopped thinking about the surgery for one stinkin’ second — the anesthesia, the oxygen tube, the cutting (gah!) — but I’m not freaking out. Yet. Anyway, please be patient with me as I take a brief blogging break. More than likely I’ll be able to come home in the afternoon, but there’s a small chance I’ll have to stay overnight in the hospital. Either way, I probably won’t be up to posting for a day or two. If you’re a praying type, please send up a few for me — I would really appreciate it. And I’ll be back here as soon as I can. Have a great week, friends!
