Brain Surgery and Public Toilets

I have to have brain surgery. Anyone who has questions about this can call or email me. Other than that I do not really feel like going in to it any further. Just know that if I am writing less than normal it is due to the lack of feeling in my fingers and very bad head aches.

I have noticed that I rarely get to use private restrooms. This thought was sudden and also very disturbing. I was going to the restroom at work when it hit me, you see our entire floor shares one restroom, and though the company I work for is half of the floor I do not know what their extracurricular activities involve. I get to work at 7:30 and leave at 5:30, then if I go out and about with The Sig or as a family with the little man in tow then we are always some place public. I waited in a 20 minute line last night after watching Benjamin Button. Or the gym…I hate the restroom at my gym…because you know not only has foreign butt been on that seat it has been sweaty foreign butt. So I have figured out that only about 10% of my bathroom time is spent in a private bathroom. That little factoid really unnerves me. Although I am not sure why, I know that it has probably been that way my entire life.

Speaking of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, what an amazing movie. I can not wait for it to come out on dvd so I can own it. Oh, and how beautiful was New Orleans! My mother and sister went to see it and they told me they recognized houses that we had past when I took them on a walk around the Garden District. Seriously though, Brad Pitt was phenomenal bringing to life a character that could have been very unconvincing by most. The story itself wove in and out of age and time like a fine thread picked out of an amazing tapestry reminding us that life is what we make of it. I encourage anyone that has not seen it to do so!
