Nice run ... very early in the morning (for me). 6AM. Was the coolest run I have had in about a month -- 45F. I had to run to work to give a talk to a bunch of biologist-types (they are nice, but statistics seems to bore most of them), then I snuck a valium about an hour before my doctors appointment ;-). The surgeon is pretty darn good. It was not pleasant, especially when I broke the first core needle (I am not joking! it was weird -- I told him that the tissue was very dense ;-)). He was incredibly calm, so I did not freak out - externally anyway. It took a longer time than I would have liked, but it was not that bad (the valium helped I think). Last night, and today, is much worse than the last one .... he had told me yesterday, "you will be pretty sore". I am surprised he did not laugh in my face when I asked him when I could run again. I *might* be able to jog very slowly tomorrow .... but I am really not sure, he was extremely aggressive. He did freak me a out a little ... he threatened that if this is negative he will go in surgically, apparently he seems to think it is something serious. He seems pretty darn stubborn is what I think. Now I get to wait a week for results ... almost worse than the procedure. I just hope I can run soon. Oh, and I hope I can get all this work that has piled up finished!! Two grants, one paper, one book review, and a week of course notes and a quiz!! what happened to my spring break????
