The surgery went well. Jalen had some debris removed from his left knee in a 45-minute arthroscopic procedure. We got some great news from the doc - the ACL was only partially torn, so the doc thinks it may heal on his own, removing the need for reconstructive surgery when he's done growing. They also found a slight tear of the lateral cruciate ligament, but it's very minor and should heal itself as well. Jalen was quite groggy afterward, but there appear to be no long-term negative effects. Everyone's prayers and well-wishes are greatly appreciated.
I'm a little (ok, VERY)disgusted at myself. I haven't gotten very much work done this semester. Where has the time gone? Apparently, much of it has been spent right here in front of the PC or in front of the telly. Anyway, it's time to pay the piper: I have a committee meeting Friday, in which I'll learn if my research project is sufficient to earn a degree, and whether or not I'll have to take anymore classes. If there's one thing I'd like to change about myself, it's my laziness. And my insecurities. And my desire to be liked by everyone. I guess I also need to work on my inability to count to one properly.
Heather L., if you read this, know that Mark thinks you look like Julia Roberts too.
The whole T.O. saga really makes me feel good about Monday's Dallas/Philly game.
So where's the Clemson/FSU viewing party going to be?
A whole lot of something about nothing...

Mike, I am glad to hear the good news about Jalen. Hopefully, all will heal well.
Ahhh. Character issues. If I had any character, I might have some issues. LOL ...Hey, she's prettier than Julia Roberts... I would like to have a FSU viewing party, but unless we have a "short" day - or a game time change - or someone record the game, that one is out... And CU/USC pay per view, what's with that? I wonder what it costs and if it's available on Charter.
I hope the meeting goes well.
Hey Mike. I'm also glad to hear the good news about Jalen.
Hope your meeting on Friday turns out the way you want it to.
As for FSU viewing party -- have absolutely no interest in that, but hope you find one and have a blast. Tell the family we say hello.
Well, I thank all of you for your kindness in comparing me to Ms. Roberts. I am very flattered. As to Clemson/ FSU ... if it is on t.v. there will be a viewing in Augusta. Come on down.
How'd the meeting go Mike? Hope you got the news you wanted. Have a great Sabbath! See ya tomorrow.
