Heather went in for gall bladder surgery on Thursday. It was an outpatient procedure, and we were supposed to walk out some time Thursday afternoon.

We didn’t leave the hospital until Saturday afternoon.

The surgery itself went fine, but recovery took some time due to complications, so we ended up staying quite some time and getting more tests done.

I’m not bitter at all; I would much rather stay a little too long than have left a little too early. The staff was wonderful and took very good care of Heather.

However, it made for a long three days. Plus, the hospital didn’t have a public wireless network (cue tiny violin music).

On the plus side, I did get a few hundred pages into The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt by Edmund Morris, which is so far, excellent.
