Tomorrow a muslim is going to do a scalpel jihad on my body. He just isn't satisfied with last years jihad and demands a second try. Worse yet they won't let me wear my crucifix while he does his evil deed.

Surgery sucks, but I suppose it's better than the alternative. :-S

Hope it goes smoothly, and wishing you a speedy recovery.

Right? After 8 years of dealing with the assholes on the Hill, I'd be wolfing popcorn, guzzling an adult beverage and binge-watching just about everything.
