Glad to hear from you! I was just wondering how you were doing but I was figuring that you were probably still recovering.

Solidarity in dizziness! I too am all "how is it that I took it this hard, whoa, I thought it was just minor surgery!". Unexpectedly sleep-making! But I'm back in town next week, if there's anything I can do for you then.
