A stitch in time...

Well I got my stiches taken out today. Oddly enough, this was the most painful part of the entire procedure and that included the 3 attempts to do my IV. It was the sharp pain when he pulled taut and then cut the sutures that really was source of the pain.Granted, the actual cut had some pain, but it was more dull and simply "sore". I'm sure the...

I visited Texas and lived to tell the tale :)

So all last week I was down in Texas visiting Colin and Kristin for their wedding. I got into Austin on Saturday the 21st mid-morning. I stopped over, saw their new apartment, settled in a bit and then we went to lunch. The next day we went to the Salt Lick BBQ which had fantastic Texas style BBQ. It's kind of funny how BBQ means different things...
