I've got to admit that it was kinda nice to dump two cans of Nutren 2.0 (1,000 calories total) in the bag last night and set the pump going while I read for a while and then went to sleep.

Today was "Mule Kick" day, where my chest hurt in the morning, but now it's OK.

Surgery is tomorrow and I'll be back online when I can use a keyboard again -- Got my plastic flies packed!
