Wow, Weasel - off until June 1? That's awesome! Do you have any plans, trips, ideas, etc? Or are you just going to kind of "go with the flow" and get some major relaxation in at home with the cats? I'd imagine it's a beautiful time of year to be out and about in nature in your area.
Nons, sorry to hear about the surgery. You sound like you're well aware of the Vicodin dangers and are being responsible - well done. Hope you're feeling better soon, that can't have been a fun experience.
Can't wait for the long weekend! Have some tentative plans, but keeping things open for now, always a good thing.
