Debbi - Glad you liked the pic, too. We were all so happy that our plan to meet actually worked out!
Steve - "preppie" was a good try, but I think you were overruled.
(All I can think of are "pre-treatie" or "pre-postie" - both a little long.)
K - I'm hoping your friend or Lori will come up with the perfect term!
Marci & David - you are both VERY sweet!
Cheri & David - Noon or early afternoon on the 30th it is. (Cheri, I'll PM you my cell #.)
On the recovery front, I have to say it is amazing to me that I had brain surgery six weeks ago today! Though I still take naps everyday, six weeks ago I never thought I'd get my energy level back to where it is today - not quite where it was, but it feels good none-the-less! It gives me a sense of normalcy again. Of course, that might go out the window when I go back to work in a couple of weeks!
An interesting thing about my work...when I first mentioned to my boss that I was having problems with my inner ear (I knew I had the AN but wasn't ready to say anything), he told me he knew a good place to go for ear problems . He went on to tell me that he had a benign brain tumor removed from his inner ear back in 1975 at the House Clinic!!! Turns out he had a middle fossa done by Dr. William House. It's amazing how small the world can be...or is it just that our AN world is so small???
