This just in
So hey. There's a lot of reasons why I've been slacking off on the whole blogging thing over the past year or so. Reason number one is that there was just so much emotionally draining complete and utter crap going on in our lives that it was all I could do to make it through it the first time, much less relive it as I typed it. (As I told Measi in an email yesterday, they neglect to tell you that the "for worse" part of marriage means REALLY FUCKING BAD, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.) But we're past that now, and jobs are stable and lives are stable and I'm back to my former sparkly self, so there's hope for this blog yet.The other thing is that I made this really huge decision last summer, and I wasn't ready to talk about it here because dude, I don't want any advice or condemnation or even supportive discussion about it here. So I went and started a whole other blog about it and just avoided talking about things like doctor's appointments and insurance debacles here. But that's just gotten stifling, because sometimes things unrelated to the decision happen during the course of the doctor's appointments and I can't tell you about them because I don't want to mention the doctor's appointments. And besides, it's been long enough now that I'm comfortable enough with my decision to tell you to fuck off if you try to be an asshole about it.
My Top Secret Plan that I mentioned in January is my planned RNY gastric bypass surgery this summer. I have a number of reasons for doing this, and they're all listed in my other blog (which is where all of my entries about this will be), which is relatively easy to find if you are smart. Nothing anyone says is going to change my mind, so please don't bother. Just know that this was not an easy decision and it was only made after long discussions and lots of deep thought.
In other news, I've done very little work today so I should go do that. I have, however, answered the eternal question "Chocolate or cheese?" with a resounding CHEESE. Cheese for all my days, please! I think I should have some cheese before I go work. Right?

Actually I think it's pretty wonderful! Good for you. You are not one to do such a thing lightly or go into it with unrealistic expectation. It's your body and you manage it any way you see fit. I wish you every success with your surgery and the adjustment afterward. Mwah! ~LA
I agree with LA; good for you! And even though I will be jealous, I will beatdown anyone who gives you shit about it.
Oh -- cheese. Definitely.
You know I'm supporting you in this. And as mentioned before... once Erich's able to start picking up pieces, definitely use him as a resource with questions, since you're doing the same surgery he had.
(( hugs ))
Hey - remember me? I was one of the crazies at Weet-I. I echo other comments... I think that any medical decision is a tough one. I am especially glad that you have had the opportunity to express this in your double-secret-blog. so good for you - on the decision process and the decision itself!
That is awesome! I'm sure it wasn't an easy decision, but I just know everything will work out perfectly for you!
