Thanks to those of you that sent well-wishes for my mom's surgery the other day. Everything went fine, I visited her tonight and she seems to be doing as well as she can be stuck in a hospital bed on a clear liquid diet (Yeah, kinda makes you go "ulgh" just thinking about it, right?).

The I've-Been-Off-LJ-For-About-Five-Days Update! Buckle up, folks: this is going to be a long one.
