Not that anyone really cares but...

OK, well this first thing is WAAAY off topic, but I'm too proud not to share.  My nephew, a freshman, won states in wrestling this weekend (for the private schools( in the 103 lb. weight class (damn, I don't think I've ever weighed 103 lbs.).
Second thing, I'm having my port replaced next Friday.  I've always had a pain on and off but it got really bad around the first of the year.  It has most likely flipped but it's also got a lot of scar tissue around it according to Dr. Singh.  Not a biggie - but it's 2 incisions and general anesthesia.  
Peace

Congrats on your nephew...and Ouch for the port. That has always been a big scare that something like that will happen to me..How are you doing otherwise?

Doing fine.  Haven't had a fill since last spring though because of this port.  Again, a small bump in the road, I'll probably spend more time getting prepped than I will in surgery and recovery together.
I'm SO laughing at your Richard Simmons post.  He cracks e up - but you know what - he keeps on going and motivates a whole lot of peopele.
I INSIST on pictures!

I agree! We DO care. As a dedicated Aunt, I so appreciate your loving pride on your nephew's accomplishment. Congratulations to him AND you!

Good luck on the port correction. Sounds like it is the right thing to do so that you can move forward with your life!

Wishing you all the best.

I know what you mean about the first one too. I had the opportunity to spend a siginficant amount of time with my first nephew. I refer to him as my nephson, a term I stole from another friend who also has a special relationship with her nephew. Now that my nephson is grown up, he fathers me. It is quite amusing (and special). Enjoy it!

Damn Aaron - who's that hot guy in that picture???  I've been reading the posts and sharing in everyone's accomplishments, disappointments, etc but work is busy and this port issue has been weighing on me so haven't posted as much.
Thanks.
