Bon, I asked my orthro about a letter for flying. He said they used to issue cards for people, like with hip replacements, but the TSA ignores them now.
So get a letter from your ortho if the flight's post surgery and you have a half cast, a wrap and dressings that can't be removed yet, but you will have to be wanded and body-searched, I'm afraid.
Signed,
Your Bionic Arm sister (a plate and 7 screws) -- we fight crime!
I'm getting a plate and screws in my arm Monday. What I didn't realize was that it would be permanent!
Non-permanent pins and screws and things stick out of the body. It's very awkward during the healing process.
Someone nearby just started band practice (or sound check). Drum kit and electric guitar starting at 1:30am? That's bound to make some people cranky.
As a person whose face doesn't look at all happy at rest, I have to say that if I had just celebrated my Diamond Jubilee, I wouldn't be making my face smile for five hours, either. I heart the Queen.
Now, why I woke up at 6 and stayed up is a mystery. Why I woke up isn't that much of a mystery, because my cat was yelling in the other room. Which is actually a reassuring sign, because I think all the puking gave him a sore throat or something, but he's been pretty quiet for a while.
Although the Queen was undeniably frowny, I think she is a beautiful woman. And I really liked her dress.
So, not only did they not let Beckham on the football team, they didn't even let him come all the way into the stadium?? I call bullshit.
WRT Becks, But he did get to drive the boat on the Thames! That's something, right?
It certainly is something.
Went to the bank and the supermarket, forgot to return my book to the library, and met a nice old couple who came over from London to escape the Olympics and were devestated to learn that Filene's Basement is gone.
The Queen's like a hundred and fifty and it looked like she had to stand for several hours during the ceremony. I don't blame her for not being exuberant.
