Maybe not such a long wait?
It was somehow easier to get out of bed this morning to the sound of Matt's alarm, which I'm less used to hearing. I don't know why he had it set an hour before he ended up getting up (wishful thinking?) but it worked. I finished another four-episode DVD of "House" and watched the finale of "In Treatment" while I sweated it out on the bike. My knee wasn't so great today. I think I tweaked it in the gym again, which happens way too easily. In any case it wasn't worse than it's been in the past few weeks, but it's always a downer when it is feeling better and then it isn't.
Today was a ridiculously hectic day at work and my stress level was building all day since I'm going to be out of the office at a conference tomorrow (but still on email, apparently). When I ran out to get a sandwich at lunch, I noticed that I had a message on my cell phone. It turned out it was my knee doc's nurse, letting me know that he could fit my surgery in at the end of the day next Friday. Although it isn't ideal because I won't be able to eat or drink anything all day, I think I am going to go for it just so I will be able to stop worrying so much about the procedure and get to work on the rehab and recovery.
I didn't eat as much as I should have today because I was so busy, and I paid for it at the gym. I was really struggling and a Balance bar helped some but I couldn't wait to be done.
Matt's in New York for the night and I have plenty to keep me occupied in terms of work emails and planning for my busy weekend which kicks off with the first day of the conference tomorrow.
