Doctor, Doctor…

I am having a minor surgery today, nothing really to worry about, but just something that my doctor says has to be done.  I was supposed to have this surgery back in July, but my insurance company decided that I had a waiting period of one year because it might be a pre-existing condition.  The waiting period was passed on September 1, but because of my job, I had to wait until the Thanksgiving holiday to have this surgery done.  Because I will be staying with my parents during my recovery this week, I won’t have much access to the internet.  Therefore, I spent the weekend setting up posts for this week.  If you email me during this week, I probably will not be able to answer until the end of the week.  I also won’t be able to respond to comments, though I promise that I will when I get back to my house.  See you guys on the flip side.

I began my life in the South and for five years lived as a closeted teacher, but am now making a new life for myself as an oral historian in New England. I think my life will work out the way it was always meant to be. That doesn't mean there won't be ups and downs; that's all part of life. It means I just have to be patient. I feel like October 7, 2015 is my new birthday. It's a beginning filled with great hope. It's a second chance to live my life…not anyone else's. My profile picture is "David and Me," 2001 painting by artist Steve Walker. It happens to be one of my favorite modern gay art pieces. View all posts by Joe

    Joe: From Seinfeld – the "get well" song:Get well, get well soon, we want you to get well. Get well, get well soon we want you to get well!

    Jay and FOC: As y'all both know by now, I came through fine, but I still wanted to leave a comment of thanks here. Thank you guys for your concern.BTW, FOC, here is a little secret between us (wink, wink), I always hated Seinfeld, so I am glad you told me where the song was from, otherwise I would have never known. I think I am one of the few people in America to not like Seinfeld, but it doesn't bother me for people to quote from it. I quote from my favorite shows all the time.
