why can't we have sticky threads? All the other kids have them. It's not fair.

Surgery is kind of brutal when you think about it. But anyway, she's feeling slightly better.

Re: your fogged up glasses, it occurred to me this morning as I was walking to the metro that it really is Summer now. We're actually in July. This isn't just some little heat wave that will pass. It's not even all that bad, but it won't be comfortable again until September.

How's her sense of humor/self mockery index? Would she be cheered up by a bunch of photoshoped scar hiding tattoo suggestions?

Sometimes the head-on approach works wonders.

I never know. She's often pretty good with the self mockery, but sometimes not.

Well, considering she was trying to hide her condition from the kids, and only relented when "Cancer surgery center" showed up on caller ID and they started to get worried, and she also didn't tell any of the family at the recent 4th of July get together, I think she's trying to keep this thing private.

Not very realistic though, since it's right on her forehead and will take some time to heal. I don't think she's planning to hide for a few weeks.

She could become Hindu.
