Thanks, everyone, for all your well-wishes! I've spent the past week in a codeine haze, having wonderful hallucinations of TLATLKS nursing me back to health, but the surgery went picture-perfect (but I won't describe it - even for gothic lovers like us it might be too gothic) last Friday the 14th. I've still got five more weeks of total healing (which means no gym - eek!), but that will give me time to catch up on a week's worth of missed posts. But I didn't miss one, single episode of DS - thank goodness for the VCR!
