hmmm…
today was uh I would say eventful but the events wern’t all that fun. I woke up around 08:15 and turned off my alarm then went back to sleep :shock: I woke up around 09:05 or so and thought oh shit I missed my appointment with the surgeon so I hopped up and threw on some clothes and looked at the paper for when I was supposed to be there and it said 09:30 which was good, so I drove down the road to the office and checked in got back there and waited (no shirt mind you, one of the few doctors I know who make you have it off before seeing you.

Anyway the surgeon came in and read my chart and talked some, to sum it all up, he doesn’t do the laprascopic procedure only the slice you open kind cause of his old time training which is fine either way, then he basically said I was “fat”, “overweight”, and “obese”… well no shit! I know I’m fat but he made a big issue out of it, do this exercise this way eat that. If I wanted diet counseling I would have went to one, I was here about surgery. Well he goes on to say he doesn’t like to operate on fat people (oh joy) because it involves more work (what are you being paid for?) but there are more risks with heavier people which I know about. blah blah so I have to go and still have that Esophageal motility test done in the morning (07:30) and have them fax the info to him as well as my GI doctor (suprisingly Dr. Sullivan has never pressed on anything about my weight other than complimenting me and telling me I was losing too much sometimes) THEN I have to go back Thursday and if my motility test is ok we get the surgery scheduled. I honestly would get an appointment with a different surgeon and all but I really don’t have that much time to get all this stuff done before tenncare boots me and the transition to Blue Cross Blue Shield TN will take a bit.

So anyway went home steaming and then grabbed my living will/power of attorney and went to the bank to get it notarized, waited in line then got sent to another part of bank, waited then got told the bank doesn’t notarize those documents anymore due to the legal risk and the bank doesn’t want to take that risk associated with it. Tried to contact a few other notaries but they didn’t want to do it cause of the “risk”. Piss on them, I’ll go to city hall and find one or find a lawyer to do it.

Came home, worked on some stuff then took a nap. Got up around 18:00 or so and got on FFXI and watched the Family Guy movie then went and got my mom some grub and such and came home and got on FFXI and helped out a few people. Now I’m talking to Gina and can’t really sleep (or couldn’t get to sleep earlier might be able to soon but seems like a waste to just sleep for so few hours).

Updated the gallery yet again, moved some albums into one album to organize the main listing then added a new pic to My Setup gallery and added some pictures of Chris and Alice to the Friends gallery.
