Well I'll have to say this has seemed like the longest week of my life! Originally we thought surgery was going to be last Monday, January 19th, but because of other surgeries at the hospital, mine was bumped to this Monday, January 26th, and is now scheduled for 8:00 am MST. I have been trying to keep myself occupied and wrap up things business-wise, as well as make sure everything is in order here at the house...as I guess I won't be cleaning and vacuuming for quite some time! (rats!) =)
On a humorous note, someone pointed out to me some insightful tips which I'll have to say were very timely for me, so I thought I'd share them with you.

- Oops! Hey, has anyone ever survived 500ml of this stuff before?
- Rats, there go the lights again...

- Could you stop that thing from beating; it's throwing my concentration off
- That's cool! Now can you make his leg twitch?!
- I wish I hadn't forgotten my glasses.
- Well folks, this will be an experiment for all of us.
- Sterile, schmerile. The floor's clean, right?
- Anyone see where I left that scalpel?
- This patient has already had some kids, am I correct?
