"Hey, you look taller. It's weird to see you not sitting down!"
"Hey, you're walking!" "Yeah, with both feet even."
In fact, I was cleared to walk (with crutches) a couple weeks ago. I'm still going to physical therapy and it will be a while before all this medical stuff is over with, but I'm feeling better all the time. Although I started school on time—over a month ago—it seems like my life has been on hold for the last two months. It's time to start writing again. Or something.
Thanks for all the good wishes sent my way. Dr. Science and the rest of the folks I worked with this past summer sent me a card too. As a get-well gift, Dr. Science even made up a miniature version of the Hamster project poster from the poster session that I missed because I was in the hospital. How engineer-like! It's on my mantel now.
