Hi.

Not much, just doing the do. Had a nice weekend. Saturday I got to love on Josh a little since he just finished his Master's. We went for a couples massage at Alki View Massage. Freakin' SWEET! Never knew a good rub down could be so great. And not only did we get good massages but we got to pet a delightful hound too. Emma is a St. Bernard and she is wonderful!

Got to have good dinner with a friend Thursday night too. And with a dearly loved couple of friends Friday night. It was some of the first times we've hung out with people and not just talked about how I'm doing or other accident related stuff. It was nice. Almost felt "normal".

And went to the psychologist on Friday too. Got good info / confirmation about the whole trying to remember thing. Pretty much think I will not pursue that path. Actually, pretty much sure I will not pursue that path. If it comes to me in the future I'll deal with it then. And if not then I'll just trust that it is a little gift from God and my body's way of protecting itself by not remembering and leave it at that.

And got to go to a weird party today. Weird because it feels sort of Twilight Zone-ish and makes me feel old. The party was a graduation party for my cousin. She's graduating from high school. I remember when she was a baby. Wow - she's graduating from high school! When it all boils down that proves that I am old. Oh well. Better old than dead.

I have a few things to look forward to in the upcoming week. My 30th HBOT session is one of them. Another is that the DVR lady (division of vocational rehabilitation) from UW is going to come do a site visit at Amgen on Wednesday morning. I also have my first "conference" with my occupational rehab lady and my boss-man this Wednesday. Woo hoo.

Don't have much else.

Maybe I'll do another call for questions since my life is getting a little more "back to normal" i.e. boring. Please feel free to give me some fodder for my next few posts.

Talk at ya soon.
