Stitches Itches

I had my first post-op check in with Dr. Jill today (Hi, Marie!) and sadly, all she did was remove the little pieces of tape covering the incision. The stitches are still in. I go back in 3 weeks, so hopefully, they'll be taken out.

This weekend was full of chicken and pizza. We had Friday Night Dinner with my folks and my mom made a very spicy chicken dish, which John thoroughly enjoyed. She also made a chicken & coconut soup, which I hadn't had in quite a while. Yummy!

After FND, we met up with Freddy and Mike at the Corner Pub for Dinner B. PIZZA! I'm not sure if pizza is John's #1 food item or if chicken is. Both are definitly in his top 3. I saw a guy from the old neighborhood (he still lives up the street from my parents) so we chatted and caught up and shared news of the old Dallas Ave crew. He went to private school in his younger years and a different high school than the rest of us but was always a fixture in the Alaniz household (3 doors up from my folks).

Saturday, we had PIZZA at Freddy's and tried to watch the Redskins game, but ended up watching more Nascar than football due to the rain. We were hoping San Diego Irene would make it into town, but her flight was delayed. Maybe we'll see her sometime this week! Sunday was a "laze around the house" day for me.

Not much else going on... wish I had more interesting stories about the neighbors for BHL, but it's pretty quiet during the day here. Or maybe I'm just sleeping through all the excitement!
