This was an awesome weekend ( Read more... )

Everything is in fact, fine. No surgery is required, and I won't die. I will however have to have a doctor keep an eye on it for pretty much the rest of my life. Thanks to all for the good wishes!

My Internet IM gateway is down. I can EITHER use the internal one and talk to people I work with OR hack AIM out of our firewall...just not both. It is a disturbing thing to see all of those "Off-lines" next to your friends' names!

Should be up in a few weeks as we migrate to a new system.

Or, you know, I could just use the phone!

Today we have...

-Happy birthday to Muon, Tao, and Dutch! Cats extraordinaire and a healthy 7 years old.
-Happy birthday to Rebecca (Pam's niece)! Cute little girl extraordinaire and also a happy and healthy 7 years old.
-7th anniversary of the day I bought my house. (the house is significantly older than Becky or the cats)
