    doesn't it take a huge weight off just getting that part over?!!! Now go get some rest and get ready for rehab.

    I think you've had enough narcotics for one day.

    Congrats WSD!! Glad to hear it's over, and you're feeling okay!! This was an outpatient surgery I assume? Here's to hoping you heal back to 110% and get well in time for mountain biking season!!

    It sure is. (slow pitch). There've been times after a shoulder tweak where typing has been virtually impossible.

    Here's to a rapid and full recovery. Remember that skiing/boarding doesn't end when the resorts close so there's still a good chance for spring/summer snow sliding.
