Hernia surgery. Will be out of hospital Friday, and watching football in sweet misery.

Life gives u lemons sometimes.

Just know this, no matter how I'm feeling, no matter the discomfort of having a foreign body surgically installed into my belly button, the nausea, lightheadedness, no showers for a week, liquid diet, having my wife wipe my ass, no the deed for a month, etc etc...

All that poop aside, never have I been this excited for a Saturday...

I work night shift, and can't sleep because of nervousness due to tomorrow's dread... But here I am, anticipating the game just like the rest of wyonation. Wrap your heads around that for a second. One state, it's fans from near and far, one team, and a old school stadium with some fierce conditions.

Wyoming unified in Laramie. This doesn't just happen, in fact it hardly ever happens. Effort given from many angles, the administration, the legislature, the community, the team and seniors, to the great coaches. It's not another just another Saturday. It's our saturday, and we damn well earned it.

All the bs bowl implications aside, this is for our state. The fans that have waited, the donors, the governor. It's our chance to not be an afterthought anymore. It's what makes working a 12 hour shift in horrid weather conditions worth going to work again. It's really our state's chance to celebrate something that we labored endlessly to achieve.

Don't let anybody tell you anything different, when Wyoming focuses on something... It's not about the fear of losing, it's about doing what has to be done to finish the job. Clarity.

Time to write our own page of history.

It sounds like you should at least go for knee replacement. Or has that already been done?

It's been discussed. If I have to have something major done to my knees again, that'll be it.
