Thanks to everyone who showed up, and to those who wanted to but couldn't. Nice to blow the dust off the gaming mice, and it was sure nice to have something to distract me from the sameness of a hospital room. I wasn't feeling too well - that's why I disappeared for 20 minutes at the beginning of the gaming session. It happens every time I try to make plans. Hopefully the operation will help that.

Three more days until the operation!
