I'm here now. Had the doctor not screwed me, the surgery would be done, I'd be at the hospital with my mom and getting ready to bring her home and get going on her rehab.
But that would have been optimal. I've a bunch of crap to do today, then I'm going home tomorrow in the early AM, get my distributor machine over to the dude (former boss and really nice guy) to get it up and running, then I'm coming back next Monday night, surgery a week from today and since I have a doctor appointment on December 4th I'll probably just stay here until that and then when I leave again will depend on how my mom's recovery is going.
I may be here awhile and me being this close to Portland gives me stomach cramps.
