In my office it's common to decorate people's desks for their birthday. This is what I came in to find this morning. GLITTER EVERYWHERE!!!!!

From what I understood, he is going to fix my deviated septum (it's borderline moderate to severe), and remove some stuff to open up my nasal passages. He also feels that allergies play a large role in this so I'm going to start getting tested for all of that soon. Which, if anyone has ever been to Atlanta this time of year they know that EVERYTHING turns yellow from the pollen. So allergies wouldn't surprise me at all. We know it's not tooth related thanks to the CT scan. The scan showed (or at least he said it did when he pointed it out to me, for all I know it was the CT scan of a monkey) that my nasal passages are too small. A genetic trait. Both of my parents had the same problem. He said that becasue I can't breathe well enough it's not drying out the mucus. Hence the daily sniffles and the tri-monthly sinus infections. He also hit the nail on the head when he mentioned that I probably snore (and I do, quite loudly), can't sleep for more than 5 hours at a time, and never feel well rested. Everyone keeps talking about the packing, if I remember correctly he said there really wasn't going to be all that much. Of course he could have been sugar coating it for all I know. Like I said before though, my boss had the same surgery, from the same DR. and she said that within 3 days afterwards she was up and doing chores around the house with more energy than she had ever had. I think I have answered everyone's questions. And thanks for all the feedback. I've gotten mixed reviews on how the recovery is going to be. Some say horrible (even my Dr. said to expect it to feel like I have a really bad sinus infection for 2 weeks afterwards), others say they felt great just a few days after. I guess I'll just have to wait and see which side of the fence I end up on. Right now I'm trying to stay optimistic and listen to my boss who had a great recovery since she had it from the same Dr. On a side note, the Dr. is also a board certified plastic surgeon. Think it would be wrong to say, "While you're in there........"?

He did. And I know what he's going to do. I just couldn't for the life of me tell you what the surgery is actually called. I'm just wondering how long I have to wait afterwards to start jumping again.

Went in for the follow up of my CT scan this morning and found out that I need to have surgery on my nose/sinuses. Can't remember the technical term for it (my Dr. used about 5 different 10 syllable words for the name) but they're basically going to go in and Roto-Rooter my nose. Does anyone know what the typical time frame is for being able to jump again after this surgery? That is the ONE question I forgot to ask him. My mind was focused mostly on figuring where I was going to find the vacation time for work. Fortunately my boss had the same exact surgery from the same Dr. so she's completely sympathetic to what I'll need after the surgery.

Unless I win the lottery or something HUGE happens it doesn't look like I'll make it this year. But I will definitely be thinking of you guys. Have lots of fun for me!

My boobies have had a complex ever since seeing this pic. They may never come out again. They have become very ashamed and shy now.

The one time I was 5 minutes late for curfew I was grounded for 2 weeks. I was never late again.

lol...I was kinda hoping you wouldn't remember that one. I was perfectly sober when you said that. How could I NOT remember it.

Once again Spence you completely out did yourself. I would really like to know what you did and who's soul you sold to get the perfect weather we had. Saw lots of old friends and made even more new ones. It's definitely a boogie like no else! I'm already starting the countdown to next yeah. Oh, and to Skymama...thanks for one of my new favorite quotes, "On my back or on my belly, I'm pretty easy."

Might be a little bit out of the way.

PSYCHO PUNCH!!!! Hands down, no questions asked. I actually know what's in it but I am sworn to secrecy. Anyone who has had Psycho Bob's Psycho Punch will agree with me.

You need an excuse to drink and be silly???? Amateur.

I buy scented candles for my apartment. Especially in the winter when I can't open the windows it's a nice way to freshen up the apartment.

I am accurate too smart ass. Every so often someone will come and try to tell me I did something wrong but I'll show them why I did it and their foot is instant inserted into their mouth.

So cute! And he's even got a pretty good arch already.

Maybe you should get to work on that stack of paperwork and not post on dz.com .......you slacker.... Hey now...be fair...I'm a productive slacker. As shown by the reports my boss have run which show that I access more accounts, handle more checks and money than anyone else in my department and that's WHILE posting on dz.com

Now that's some good beer. This time tomorrow I'll be driving back with K-dubs from the airport. Then after 5 very long hours at work we'll be on our way down! Can't wait to see everyone tomorrow evening!!!

Congratulations you guys!!!!

You do make a good point. How I react is a choice. But there is the rare occasion where there is no good reaction as an option. No matter what you do you're in one way or another screwed because of what the person did.

I agree. For the most part my life is a direct result of the choices I've made. There are the few instances where the choices another person made however affected my life either positively or negatively. And your poll is flawed...there's no boobies option.

Well we're a decent sized company. Have about a hundred clinics in a dozen different states throughout the country. Granted I have only been here about 8 months, but I don't see another way of doing it. We have to have both electronic and paper records of all the payments we receive. Oh...and thanks.

So I work in accounts receivable for an urgent care company. I love how insurance companies and other businesses feel they are helping the environment and "going green" by paying us online. Little do they realize we still have to print everything out on our end for people like myself to input it in the system. I have a 6 inch stack of paper in front of me from companies who think they're "going green". It's pretty comical.

Who's ready for a big Georgia Hello???

+1 Well Said.

But what if I'm wearing my corest?
