Brownies, Surgery & Cirque

Before my surgery this morning, I needed to fast from solid foods and all liquids including water - that was from 11 PM last night till 1 PM this afternoon! Crazy stuff... So Marcy prepared an awesome healthy farewell dinner last night. The menu was: Homemade mashed potatoes, Sirloin Steak, & veggies. It was delicious and properly portioned... to top it off, we had some fat free brownies which I baked myself. (That's right mom, I'm baking... food network has caught on to me).


The surgery was a success! One because I slept all throughout the surgery (I have never been that drugged) Actually, for the record, I have never been drugged period. It was a knockout! Second, my favorite nurses were there: Marcy & Silvia. hehe I was well taken care of. Anyway, the swollen lymphnode was removed and sent to a lab to be studied. In several days we'll find out what caused the reaction and I'll get my grade - I'm hoping to get an A+. Meanwhile, I'll be resting this weekend and can't walk around too much.. it'll be a great chance to catch up on some reading.

Finally, on a side note.... be sure to check out Cirque Du Soleil's performance at the Super Bowl this weekend. They have partnered with Brazilian pop artists Romero Britto to produce a 9 minute pre game show. It promises! They will perform at exactly 5:50 PM.
