I have done my laundry a day earlier than usual because I'm about to pack for surgery. There's a stack of paper on my dining table including the Sculptor's instructions, my packing list, and my boarding pass. Yes, I'm that Xer.
I should perhaps clarify that I leave for San Francisco in less than 24 hours. My pre-op appointment is Monday, and my surgery is Tuesday morning.
Even if this trip weren't in the service of something I've wanted desperately for decades, it's definitely time for me to get out of Dodge. Work has been a frustrating grind lately, and it's been nearly eight months since I got back from New York.
In between laundry loads I bopped over to my favorite coffee joint for a mocha. I looked longingly at their baked goods, which are pretty great even if you haven't been denied carbs for two weeks. As soon as the Sculptor says it's OK I'm so having ramen and sake. I wonder if I can persuade Tacoma Girl to join me.
The weather here in Seattle has been glorious. Playing in my head on the way around Green lake on my bike this morning was "Dance: Ten; Looks: Three" from A Chorus Line.

(Why are they banning you from carbs? The only thing the internet had was re: bariatric surgery, which shouldn't be relevant?)
