Fallen Among Cutthroats

I got my tonsils out this morning...yay... Mom and I watched Wimbledon until they came to take me away. All I can remember was breathing deeply into a gas thingy and them giving me anesthesia through my IV. When I woke up, I started to sing along to the music the nurse was playing in the recovery room. I remember singing to Rascal Flatts and Lonestar. I hope it didn't scar anyone.

I was also super happy. The guy next to me in the recovery room had knee surgery and I said "What up dude?". Then we talked about our respective surgeries and wished each other luck. I pretty much said hi to everyone I saw and surprisingly, I remembered a lot of the nurses names! Mom told me that I was slap happy and answered every question very optimistically. The first thing I said to Mom was, "I am your Space Dad". I think I also told her I had blessed her with unfathomable powers, but that part is all a blur. Now comes the recovery. I think it might be time for a Lord of the Rings marathon!

Time Goes Fast!


I cannot believe that time goes by so fast! Most my friends have left or are leaving for their missions all across the WORLD! I wish that August 24th would come faster. It doesn't help that Ian got his call almost 2 months after me and leaves 2 weeks before me. Oh dear. One year down of college and track, the mission on the way, I feel ancient! Time sure does fly!
