Going under the knife tomorrow morning.

Glad to hear everything went fine.

An abscess is a bad thing, and your doctor is right.
Be very obedient with changing the gauze and cleaning the wound, even if it hurts.
(You don't want a pocket to develop, trust me)

Now it is back to baby duty for you :)

As the snow flies
On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'
A poor little baby child is born
In the ghetto
And his mama cries
'cause if there's one thing that she don't need
it's another hungry mouth to feed
In the ghetto

I wrote this one the other day...

Keepin’ your head above water
Making a wave when you can
Temporary layoffs … Good times
Easy credit ripoffs … Good times
Scratchin’ and surviving … Good times
Hangin’ in a chow line …
Good times
Ain’t we lucky we got ’em … Good times
 
"I wonder if I can get him to prescribe something stronger than vicodin in the followup visit."

Take 'em with vodka. it's called a V&V. Should work.

Good to hear that you are OK, a friend went in for a hernia operation (outpatient) a week ago and had a heart attack in the recovery room (probably from the drugs) - he's still in the hospital, still doped up a week later in a $7500 /day room not counting any professional fees.

Going into the hospital today is like going into a war zone or getting stopped by pirates.
