Survived surgery. No allergic reactions to anesthetic. I was lucky enough to have my wife to nurse me, and therefore oggle, (go Wenley!). I also had an African woman from Zimbabwe who put in my IV offer to get a witch doctor to cast out the evil spirits that make me cycle, run, and kayak. I thought it was quite benevolent of her. But also quite unnecessary as the operation will do that quite nicely for at least three weeks.
I do like the idea that it is evil spirits inhabiting my body that makes me kayak surf. Perhaps I can somehow join forces with them to catch more waves, break fewer paddles and get that carbon road bike I’ve been after.

Good to hear you're on the mend. Hey, if you can't get away from your demons, it's good to know you can at least get out there WITH them, eh? If you can't beat 'em, join 'em.
