surgical fools

my sweetheart is having surgery next week to remove his wayward gallbladder. this will require an overnight stay. talk about your expensive overnight stays; we could take that money and go spend a week at the four seasons' hotel, complete with total mini-bar access. thankfully, the insurance should pony up the bucks. if not, chris may need to sleep with his doctor.

in memorium of the cheese's gallbladder, i am setting up a trust fund to help us cope with this loss. it's always hard to say good-bye to a beloved organ, but i think some cash should make this grieving period less sorrowful. if you would like to contribute, please send a check made payable to myself. put the word "gallbladder" in the memo so i know what the money is for; i don't want to confuse these checks with the other ones pouring in from the time i had to throw out that fern.

your financial assistance is deeply appreciated during this difficult period.
