Happenings: January 2004 Archives

So, my dad had surgery today, and as a result, his colon is now 6" shorter. I've kindof been in a bad mood because work has been giving me the "big beat down", and this impending surgery hasn't been making me feel any better.

But, the good news is everything appears to have gone well. He had the less invasive form of the surgery, so that means his recovery time should be in the 2~3 week time frame. By that time, hopefully his work will have bought a new PowerBook for him (and then we can use iChat AV!).

I suppose that I have this whole thing to look forward to when I am my dad's age. Hopefully, by then, they'll have little ingestible nanobots that can go into my colon and munch all of the polyps right up. That would be sweet.
