--awesome(ly bad) looking white stockings designed to reduce clots in legs?
Check
--cute teddy bear issued by MDA thoracic surgery dept to support chest during travel & coughing & such?
Check
--unshowered head desperately in need of multiple showers?
Check (btw to all concerned parties, upon arrival in H'burg this afternoon, I will be free to shower with abandon. Thus, from the time we arrive home until our hot water runs out, I'll be, um, unavailable...*smile*)
--best-looking chauffer on the road today?
Check *grin*
--alternate route designed to avoid a subset of the thousands of cars returning home to S. MS & S. LA?
Check (confidence is low here; as Lisa noted, the natives of S. LA will surely know the alternate routes too...*sigh*)
--pain pills?
Negative! Don't need 'em! *knocks on wood* (they're in the car just in case...)
--ipod with itrip connector?
Check!! (if you're wondering, the day's music will begin with Leslie West's smoking-hot electric version of the blues classic "Stormy Monday," followed by his smoking-hot version of the blues song "If Heartaches Were Nickels." Note that neither my lovely driver nor I are feeling "bluesy" in the slightest; we both really like blues music, and Leslie West is--imho--one of the all-time great blues rock guitarists--see "Mississippi Queen" by Mountain for example; that's him. Now you know...)
--movie to return to Blockbuster?
Check ("Bucket List"...great flick!)
--prayers of many friends?
Check! (I hope)
Annnnnnnd, we're off.
See you from the Burg!

Mike,
Just finished watching "Bucket List" myself. However, I could not have watched it w/ dry eyes w/o getting your "cancer-free" diagnosis first! I did water-up a bit, however, when Morgan Freeman put some undeserved dents on the 1966 350 Shelby!
BTW: Another reason for you to give thanks to God: Alabama doesn't play Florida in the regular season! Bet you're glad to hear that! Wait, weren't you a Gator first and foremost? Can you say TRAITOR?
Go Gators!

PS: I take exception to the phrase "beaten like a tied-up goat".
You always had the legs for support hose.
Hey Mike....lovin' that mental picture of my favorite SS teacher in white support hose....that one will help entertain me for a while!!! SO GLAD that you are home and CANCER FREE.....doesn't that sound wonderful???? I hope that you enjoyed your shower....I always say that a shower and a toothbrush are mighty good medicine!! Take care and enjoy your week....we'll keep those prayers coming for a speedy recovery! Here's to a wondrous NORMAL existence!!! Love y'all much!
