Well.

Well. Ted’s dad’s gone in for angioplasty this morning. He woke up about ten days ago with chest pains, which proved not to be a heart attack (thank goodness), and Fairbanks had to send them down here because they don’t have a cardiac unit up there (buh), and yesterday at the hospital here they determined that the back artery to his heart is 99% blocked. So they’re fixing that today. o.O 10:20am, ETA: Gary’s out of surgery and it went perfectly. Yay!

I’ve just added it up. I’ve exercised (in a quantifiable fashion) 144 out of the available 190 days so far this year. Why aren’t I thin yet? It’s vurry nice out. Biked 15 miles. Can’t decide if I’m starving now or too full of water to eat, or both. I think both. Halfway through the edits on FD. Going pretty well. Ted’s parents’ll be here tonight, and I’ll be a horrible daughter in law because I’ve got to get this thing finished and out the door. :/ (Actually, they’re very…
