Blogging resumes, the drugs are wearing off...

So… since I last left you, I was getting ready for my big ACL surgery, and I’m glad to report everything went well. The doctor had some trouble getting the old screws out of my bones from my previous surgery 6 years ago, but other than that everything was ‘standard procedure’. Plus, I’ve got a pretty sweet “incision/battle scar” from the surgery (chicks dig scars, right?).

After the surgery, I was drugged up on hydrocodone pills for 2 days or so… which of course made it easy to just lay around, pass out, concentrate on the paint patterns on the ceiling of my bedroom, etc. I also had time to reflect and value the humbling experience an individual is put through after surgery. With how busy and ‘connected’ we all are in this world, it doesn’t take much to make you realize how important friends, family, and good health are.

I do want to mention, I also really appreciate the emails and comments everyone sent, thanks for the support! You guys are awesome!
