      If you want 42 days to pass quickly, borrow (and promptly spend) some money that has to be paid back in 42 days.

      whenever a appointment date doesn't really appeal to me I ask that they put me on a cancellation lists. letting them know you will be available whenever. it almost always works for me.

      Don't lose yourself on the details. So you climb Mt Everest in April instead of March. In the big picture does it matter?

      Yeah, it's hard to wait when you're excited! Use the time to learn a LOT by the time you have your surgery. I think you will be more confident about your decision.

      I totally understand. I just got my call this morning to come in and sign the consent for surgery on Tuesday. I was waiting for about two weeks for that call and it felt like forever. But its been a year since I started on this path so two weeks is not that bad I guess. I'm just hoping everything else goes smoothly.

      2WEEKS!!! uuuhhhh!!!!..... Really, I'm thinking that's about how long i'll have to wait. Do you know if you get your surgery date when you go in Tuesday? You're right, in the big picture 2 weeks isn't really all that long.

      Fingers crossed I get my surgery date on Tuesday!
