1. We're both well, John.

Sorry to hear about your appendix.

:pals:

[JohnKleeb]

3. Its ok

I went back to work today on the hill and they were really cool about it, I even met my boss Marcy Kaptur today who found about it and she was really nice about it all, almost like an aunt.

6. Marcy Kaptur is your boss?!

You lucky ...

Congratulations!

7. Yes

Yeah shes great, what a Catholic dem should be, relatively moderate culturally, liberal economically and on foreign issues. David Obey, RMM on appropirations who I also wanted to work for is like that too. The office I work next to, that of James Oberstar of Minnesota is like that too. He's a fellow Slovenian too :), the only in the house. Its a great job that said and they have a great staff.

9. Abdominal surgery is not fun but at least

you're rid of an organ that's not known for anything except causing trouble. It used to be, and maybe still is, SOP (pun intended) to remove a patient's appendix anytime abdominal surgery was performed. So I got rid of my appendix without technically having an appendectomy, I guess.

Mr. Bones has been really sick with a virus so I've been performing corporal works of mercy here. I'm really tired and hoping and praying I don't get sick next.

Glad you're back, though I said hello in the Lounge the other day. :hi:

[JohnKleeb]

10. Didnt see you in the lounge so hi

Sorry about your husband. Yeah it was painful and getting caught up again in school is a hassel.
