Grr, now there's a question about my BMI and surgery! And I have to be up by 4:10am to make sure I'm there on time at 8:15am, cause the anesthesiologist needs to talk to me about other health questions. I better be having this surgery tomorrow I'm going to be mightily pissed off!

Thanks Brenna, were there any questions like that when you had your surgery?

Having an older guy patron carry on a tirade, saying hurtful and personal comments to me while at the reference desk while patrons within earshot laughed.

Wow, Princess Garnet, that is simply awful. Unbelievable the way people (mis)behave. I am so sorry to hear that.

SonjaMarie, I hope all is okay and you get this OVER with.

LoveHistory, my sympathies to you and your family. The world always needs lovely people like that - and it has one in you.

SM-I did have to undergo a bunch of tests before my surgery, but mine was a little bit more invasive. I hope everything went ok!!

The worst thing today..I had to go back to work. For a half day anyway! :D

Thank you to everyone for your sympathies.

Sonja, I remember that my dad had that surgery. It wasn't comfortable but he said afterwards that it was nice to breathe again. I'm sending good thoughts your way.

Have to re-home our dog. She bit one of the boys. She was on the couch and he reached for her collar to get her to move and she bit him. We think it had something to do with storms moving through the area. She's got a problem with storms. There wasn't any thunder we could hear, but she may have sensed something out of our hearing range.

My parents have agreed to take her, which is good. She loves them, and that way the kids can still see her once in a while.

Still sad though.

While out walking Padfoot, I slipped in the road, fell face first into a mud puddle. Cut open my knee, sprained my ankle and likely reinjured my torn calf muscle. Lovely way to end a Tuesday evening.

Brenna, I'm sorry to have to offer GENUINE sympathies after all the joking we were doing when you were off work - but I do offer them. Be well soon ...
