I have a bad attitude.
I'm faking it relatively well, most of the time, but I'm at a loss for words. I don't want to deal with this. I'm tired of surgery, tired of being brave, tired of holding myself together, tired.
Tonight is my first book club meeting with a group of women I don't know (except Katie, who invited me to join, and Jenny, who is joining tonight as well). Hopefully this keeps my mind off things.
And WELCOME TO THE WORLD, Michele & Dave's baby boy, Elliott's brother! He was born this morning, and mom and baby are healthy and happy. I will meet him tomorrow before surgery, and I'm looking forward to it immensely.
