Hey fellas. Unfortunately, I'm going in for some surgery on July 13th. It's actually nose surgery - I'd rather not get into details here in public but suffice to say I was born without a sense of smell nor the ability to breathe through my nose. For those of you who remember, I actually had surgery once already in 2002 which involved some serious sinus reconstruction (UGH!), and plan for this to be my second and last surgery.

While I don't plan on being admitted (it's ambulatory), I am hoping, and preying, and hoping, and preying, that it's a short recovery. At this point, unfortunately I can't say how long I will be away for. I expect to be away from DaniWeb for about a week, though it may be as much as two (bite your tongue!)

While I am gone, I am leaving the community in the very valuable hands of all the DaniWeb moderators. I trust them all and I'm sure that they will do a great job taking care of the site and looking after things while I'm away.

Signing off,
Dani

P.S. I'll never actually be "too far gone" because I'll be laying in my bed just a few feet away from my PC and even less feet away from my mac, during the entire length of my recovery
