Default okay, 2 things to discuss...

The 1st one is a personal thing, information gathering, and the 2nd one is an idea for a wicked fun field trip.

1. I have been told by PCP and Dr. Potts that now that everything is over I have to go to the ER to be admitted for a gastric tube placement and "hyperalimentation". They'll put a tube in my old stomach and start loading it with stuff to make me gain weight. I set a drop dead weight for myself, and I have gone 1 lb under it. But I feel pretty darn good, I'm eating like a horse, and have a ton of fun things I want to do. The ulcer pain is completely gone thanks to Prilosec, and I have had NO pouch problems since I reported the Pissy Pouch day and got flamed by LQQKIN. (thanks again for stepping up for me, loves!) Question: how long will I be hospitalized, and how debilitated will I be? (No hot tubs or swimming?) Is it just an overnight thing, or will I be there longer? Dr. McHottie?

2. About 1to 1 1/2 hours north of here is a place called Glen Ivy. It is a day spa that totally rocks, and is very affordable. Google Glen Ivy for more info. Anyway, between the East County, North County, Imperial, and Riverside, this place is an ideal middle ground. I would take responsibility for arranging everything--I'll see if I can get a group discount if a number of us want to go. Day is flexible--Thurs, Fri, Sat, Sun are all slightly higher due to it being the "weekend" rates. It's a really great place and we could have a lot of fun. Who wants to go? If out of towners want to go, we have space for lodgers...
