Perking up in Purgatory

As everyone knows I have a very perky personality (not!) so if I say that things are perking up I really mean it. The doctor called back today and we have an appointment on Monday for a consult. He has looked over my records, but we don't know anything else. I'm hoping that since he wants to see me that means he's going to be willing to do surgery. Hopefully he'll be able to fit me in next week, but if he can't we'll probably fly home then come back. I'd prefer not to do that, but we have to do what we have to do. I'm excited to meet this guy since we've been waiting so long now! People always say 'setbacks are setups for comebacks' so I'm going with the notion that this is all a setup so I can come back better then ever! Like a family friend of ours said I hope I get on that OR table soon!

Dad and I didn't make it to Judge Dredd today, but we did get to walk around Annapolis. It's really pretty down there, like an East Coast version of Balboa Island. Lots of souvenir shops, it's on the water, and plenty of ice cream and cupcake stores! Cupcakes here are amazing I've gotten cupcakes from all different stores and I can honestly say that East Coast is better then West Coast when it comes to cupcakes. Tomorrow I get to see my beautiful, amazing, and fabulous cousin Sarah! I haven't seen her in a year and two months (yes I counted, I miss her!) so I'm excited to see her and my Uncle David too.

Weather here is still 10 times better then in California! There's actually a breeze here....novel concept right? This is my perfect weather because I can be in sweats and be just as comfortable as I am in a skirt (I still can't wait for surgery so I can wear shorts again!). I also love the convenience store in the hotel lobby so I can send Dad down for late night Ben and Jerry's. Over all things are perking up ;)

Lots of Love ~ The Sic(k) Chick
