Alright, I've talked about my pending surgery before, so I thought I'd give y'all the latest info: it isn't happening this summer. Due to things completely out of my hands, there's no way that I would have enough recovery time before school starts, so the surgery has to be postponed.
I found out that we've had insurance authorization for a while now, it's just that the surgeon was dragging his feet because his assistant still didn't have his certification at the hospital the surgery would be at. My Dad got incredibly mad about this, confronted the surgeon, and got merely a shrug from him. Now, we're looking for another surgeon. Go figure.
In other words, I've spent this summer without a job for no reason. While this doesn't bother me much, it might become a problem because I (presumably) won't have a job next summer when I should be having the surgery. The plot thickens.
All in all, this doesn't bother me much. I've had a pretty relaxed summer, learned a lot about myself, strengthened some friendships, and had a pretty good time. I have lots to do yet this summer (including getting the new version of my web site up and running...) and I don't have much time left. We'll have to see if I can get rid of my procrastination bug.
