OH SANDY!! OK first things first, why did you have lung surgery? Yes, you need to get that dry cough checked. It's probably just residual from your Christmas crud, but it's better to be safe than sorry.
So sorry about the zany boss - it would be so yucky to go to work everyday to that environment.
I am so sorry you have to have a colonscopy - mine set me back about 4 days last week. DON'T WANT TO DO THAT AGAIN!

Things in my lower track are still not quite back to normal and it was EIGHT DAYS AGO!
Your ex is a piece of work - aren't you glad he's your EX!
