I Decided

After speaking to HR and getting a better understanding of short-term disability and my vacation hours I decided not to get the surgery. I thought I would lose all my hours before they start paying me the std, so I was in a rush to get this done before January so I can have vacation hours. Another reason why I'm not gettin it done is because I need a 2nd and 3rd opinion. They talkin bout fusing my back from T3 to S1. When I first heard this I didn't have a clear understanding of what that meant. After doing the research that basically means from my collar bone to my scrotum (tail bone). Now I expressed to the dr that I'm concerned about how much flexibility I'll have left because I have this trick called "The Joker." I won't go into details but I DO NOT want to lose my ability to do that. If they fused my back that low then that would be damn near impossible for me to do it again. Finally, I figured I just get my shit done in MI that way my fam can take care of me and I'll have the baby with me. I'm not gonna tell anybody this until the day of surgery. Lol, I figured I get all the concerned texts and calls then feel special for a day.

Ooh chile! That means we get to drink a lot sooner than we think!

But umm...when I come home, you absolutely positively MUST show me what the hell "The Joker" is...or at least give me a REALLY good explanation! I mean...really! LMAO! It must be something sorta crucial if you don't want to lose the ability to do it! LMAO WORD!
