It's been over 24 hours, and I don't think it's sunk in yet. I mean, every time the Gophers have been in a spot to do something like that in my lifetime, they've been unable to come through. Until they did. It's very surreal.

I completely screamed my voice out. Whatever little was left before the final interception was gone shortly thereafter. I still sound like ten miles of bad road. I wasn't crying, but there were a lot of happy tears being shed. The crowd was as good of a crowd as I've ever seen at a game.

No rest for the wicked, though. Gophers haven't won at Mordor since 1999, and I'll not believe the Badgers are out of it until the clock reads 0 and the crowd is back on the field parading the Axe around.

What a day.

You deserve the awesome feelings my friend!  Enjoy it!

The wife's surgery went well.  They excised a substantial mass around her hip called a "pseudo-tumor".  They sent samples to pathology but it almost certainly is benign.  He replaced her ball with a new ceramic coated ball.  She was reacting to the metal fragments being thrown off by her old hip implant.  That was irritating her sciatic nerve and causing part of the problem.  The surgeon said her nerve looked fine and her bone structure was fine.  They did all this with an epidural.

She was up and walking earlier.  They gave her some oxy as some pain was starting up.  She is overnight at the hospital.

So, good news on the wife front.  She's a great gal even if she is a furriner.

Yup, hopefully she has a speedy and full recovery.  And that you don't go crazy having to do the laundry occasionally... :)

The wife's surgery went well.  Good News

So, good news on the wife front.  She's a great gal even if she is a furriner. I almost had to look that up

The laundry is on our third floor, which is the tenth floor.  So is our bedroom.

She had fried rice, which she said was awful.  They gave her French toast for breakfast, which also is not French.  She did not eat that either.  She likes my cuisine.

We are awaiting paperwork so we can depart hence before traffic gets awful.

Hospital wasn't walking distance?

Especially while breaking in the new hip?

They have a branch in walking distance, but not for surgery.  This hospital is a huge complex about ten miles north.
