I Are Not Here Too

Time now for the medical portion of Father Nature's Corner. For those of you who can't stand the thought of descriptive medical fun, you can skip the next few paragraphs, but be sure come back for the last, because just like Kermit The Frog, we have a late breaking news story.

Two weeks ago, I had willingly participated in part one of laser surgery for my one and only eye. Two hours of fun that surrounded 15 minutes with of pain and aggravation, which was soon followed by a day off with more pain that you could possibly shake a stick at. We followed that up by going back to work like a dolt the next day, only to suffer from a pain that could be described as, "stupid you, for going back to work early, now you're gonna pay for it."

Fast forward to now.

Now is pre-op, as in we scheduled a vacation day right after the surgery day, so I can spend the day wallowing in the beautiful Indian Summer and most importantly, not turn into a big baby pain in the ass for my wife.

Which brings us to the point of this post: I will once again go on a short cyber hiatus. My scheduled return date to the blog world is Wednesday night, although I will spend those off days making brief appearances on Facebook to post a few more travelouge pics from Brazil (got a few already, but you know me, I'm a stickler for actually identifying the people in the pic so as to give a proper credit), so as to pump up sales or at the very least get me some hits on my Amazon page. And like before, the comments will be hanging ten until Wednesday night.

In the meantime, enjoy this musical interlude by the ska/rock band The Hippos with the song "Paulina" (if you can find the c.d., by all means, please check it out, 'cause it really rocks).

    So I skipped the medical bit to hear the Hippos! I'm not sure what was worse! Ha, sorry, kidding, well apart from the bit about the Hippos.

    I hope you recover from your surgery soon, and I hope I recover from being trampled on by the Hippos. :D

      Oh man, puns galore in your comment. :D

      Thanks for bring a smile to my face this evening.

      I recovered very well from it. It seems the smart move was to take that extra day off to recover and decompress from the stress of the previous day.

    Yikes. I had not heard that laser was painful. Hope you come out in one piece!

      It can be, depending on what you were having done. Even though I did have local for the eye, there was still a tiny bit of pain involved. Fortunately, it wasn't as bad the 2nd time around.

      I'm hoping there won't be a repeat of this anytime in the near future. I really have to start getting my diabetes back under control again.
