Kick that Hiatal Hernia to the Curb!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiatus_hernia

Today, as I write this, my good friend Dan is undergoing surgery to repair a hiatal hernia. You may remember Dan from face smashing fame (… if forgotten, click here). So I’m sending him positive Inspiration vibes via this blog, and well wishes for a speedy recovery. Kick this thing to the curb, then throw it off a mountain! A mountain that we will hike once you’re better.

Dan’s surgery and mention of face-smashing make a good transition to something else I wanted to post. I finally watched a Michael Moore movie- Sicko, to be exact. All in all, it was okay- I didn’t love it, and actually had to stretch it over 3 days of watching, but I’m glad I watched it. I can now cross that item off of my list! You see, Dan’s face smashing incident in Hawaii caused us to go to a hospital where the costs for stitches and hospital time were ridiculous! Oh, the American medical system. So, thank goodness for the universal health care we have in Canada. That’s all I wanted to say about that.

  1. I hope Dan feels much better soon!As for the latest item on your list — I find it amusing that you managed to jump out of a plane before renting a Michael Moore film! 😀

  2. For some reason, it was sooo much easier to jump out of a plane before watching a Michael Moore film. 🙂 I felt a bit restless watching it actually, lol.
