Yup - the main delay was getting myself to the ER. I thought it was just really bad constipation or gas. Once I got there they scooted me through, did the test as soon as possible (I had to drink this icky contrast fluid and then wait 90 minutes to absorb it). But I was early enough that they could get me rehydrated, pump me full of antibiotics, get an operating room and surgeon scheduled. So ... no complications, it was about as non-dangerous as possible.
I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Still, yikes!

Glad to hear you're recovering, Todd.

I'm good - still get a little twinge, but I've been cleared for most activities (when they released me on the allowed activities they'd checked off sex but not heavy lifting ... huh?).

Ow, Toddson. Keith Olbermann did a broadcast right before his appendectomy...was very torn between "Wow, what an unlikely badass." and "God, that's what killed Houdini, you idiot." I thought he'd like the historical reference at least.

Good lord! I'm glad you're okay, Toddson. I hope you recover quickly.

so, allowed to have sex, but no heavy lifting? what kind of boring sex are these people having?
