Hello to all of zyrc's fList!

Sorry it's so late, but I just now got home. I saw Cris this afternoon about 2pm and she was pretty tuckered out. And, of course, by "tuckered out", I mean completely high on pain meds. :D

I brought her some gifts from the overly priced gift shop including a stuffed something-o-saurus (triceratops, maybe), the National Enquirer*, a word seek, and a pen shaped like an IV needle. Cris took the stuffed dinosaur, made a squinty face and said something that wasn't quite English. She then informed she was going back to sleep and I could now leave.

I was glad to find out that she had a friend from school who had been with her all day since the surgery and that other folks from the dept. were splitting up a schedule for the next few days to keep an eye on her.

I will probably be going back up tomorrow to see how she's doing and, if she's up to it, I may take a picture with her new stuffed friend and post for everyone. We'll see. Either way, I will update again this weekend.

*Upon receiving the gossip mag, our dear friend asked if it had an update on TomCat.

Sorry folks, but I don't have a picture for ya. I completely forgot the camera.

Christi (my gf) and I went up today around 11am to visit zyrc. She's doing 100% better today and even got up for a wee bit of exercise!! Cris was scheduled to go home on Monday, but it looks like she will be released tomorrow (Sunday) instead because of how quickly she's recovering. Another friend from ND arrived just after we did and is staying with her until around 2pm and then, I guess, there's a long list of others still coming in later.

Anyway, she's doing well and is mostly back to her regularly amusing self. Oh, and she is planning on watching the OSU/Michigan game this afternoon.

That's it for now. Hopefully, I'll get a chance to take that hospital picture tomorrow before she's released.
