Happy Anniversary, Jill and Larry!

Our friends, Jill and Larry Potts, are celebrating their 37th wedding anniversary tomorrow. They look pretty good for that many years of farting bliss. Jill says they met over a copy machine at the U. They had copy machines back in those days?

Thank you for the thoughtful posting of this portrait we had taken for our anniversary. I need a haircut. Talk about aging gracefully! Hahahahaha!

Like, OMG, Theresa, this is extreme misrepresentation. My hair is turning gray and I'm not the farter in the house. If we had a dog, it would be the dog, of course.

It is interesting that the person Larry looks like Steven Hawking, the famous cosmologist

Oops, Paco and I mean Teresa, not Theresa, which sounds like a Catholic Global Warming kind of name. But then Teresa looks more like an earthy Gaia kind of name, like the planet or something. Sorry for the typo.

I think Teresa is the Lutheran version. This much I know is true. I just googled the lutheran catechism...man that guy (ML) was a bit of a kook. Ragged segue, I know.

Here's a link to the Free Press site where you can find a video and a slide show with audio of the Polar Plunge. Here's the slide show of Sunday's festivities. Jane and Dick had planned to leave on Sunday but how can you pass up the Polar Plunge and a Blastfest?

being thankful

It's easy to be overwhelmed by the crap in life because there certainly is some of it. Anybody who reads the paper, listens to the news, or who gets dressed and leaves the house once a day knows it. There are so many things for which to be thankful, though, so my mental exercise this morning as I drink my coffee and watch my fireplace is to think of them. The safety of our friend, Bob, after his terrifying roll-over on an icy road near Alexandria. It took me two days to respond to his email because it was such a frightening story. As he is a good and kind person, he didn't curse the state for not sanding or even nature for sending such road conditions, but he was grateful for the kindness of a stranger and for his health. For all of this, I am thankful. A warm and well-lit house, tiny as it is. Regis and I have lived in this bitty two-bedroom, 1950's style rambler since we married 13 years ago. Most days we are overwhelmingly grateful for it's coziness and lack of st

dreams and sucking out the bad stuff

I don't really know what kind of drugs I was on during surgery. I know they gave me Versed right before I was wheeled down the hall. Just a little something to take the edge off, I guess. It also does a good job of erasing the memories. I recall seeing the OR but then the lights go out. The next few days have been like this Van Gogh painting...lots of starry naps and dim memories. I've been taking Percoset since I came home. It does a good job on the pain but today it created some nausea. It also makes me fall asleep in the middle of conversations which some people find disconcerting. I skipped my 2 o'clock dose but decided about 6 that a little nausea is worth the pain control. I am not a hero when it comes to pain. I don't even like a hint of pain. This is an interesting part of my post-surgical experience. It's a suction drainage thing. The tube end disappears into my skin under my arm and is fastened there with a couple of Frankenstein stitches.I
