I just heard from the cardiologist and everything is a GO!!!! My ticker is in good shape so surgery will definitely be this Thursday. Now, I just have to sit tight and wait for someone to call with my other two appointments. It's always a case of "hurry up and wait".

Edit to add: I get my horrorscope delivered to my inbox everyday and here's mine for today. Seems quite fitting.

Be charitable today, Slick, and offer your spare change to someone who might need it more than you do. Remember that we are all interconnected and that the happiness you give to another is really happiness that you are giving to yourself. Be rational and practical in all your dealings today, especially those that affect large groups of people within your circle of influence. The more organized you are, the better decisions you will make.
