Hi oh!
That was for you, Hatch.
When I had my last colonoscopy, I had tWife tattoo a scorpion (temporary) on the side of my ass. According to the doctor, pretty much everyone in the office got a look.

It’s a great name. Is Jake his full name or it it short for Jacob or something else?

Sorry Jake (whose name has been in the top 50 in popularity every decade since 1980) but you weren't responding to heybigguy.

You should really ask Mrs. DWags whether or not you need them yet.

Re: Random Ramblings
Scope of work has changed a few times over the last few weeks in meetings with the client. Â Complete clusterfuck of old information. Â Like trying to put together a thousand piece jigsaw puzzle with a number of pieces missing. Â
Quote got turned in today with appropriate caveats.
Again, I feel burnt out. Â Looking forward to UM and Crazy Jim getting their asses kicked tomorrow.
GO GREEN!

That seems kind of long in terms of pain pills maybe a week longer than I thought of being out.
My FIL had it done, maybe 5 years ago or so. I don't remember it all. I know my FIL pretty much can't take any pain meds except motrin/tylenol as he throws it all up. But it must be accurate with what they're telling him. Because they really don't give out extra pain pills and have cut down on most surgeries. For some reason 2 weeks out was in my head. But maybe it is 3 weeks. Lots of PT involve. Probably has something to do with how well someone responds at first too. Expect the worst/longest out just for planning purposes.

A very European style I enjoyed seeing often is a woman in black tights and a skirt. Love it when my wife wears that combo.
