i entertain myself.

Thank you so much to all of my family and friends who have rallied around me this week, both before and after my surgery.  Thank you to my amazing lady-surgeon for doing a great job and to the nurses who helped me stay calm and out of pain, to my parents for being there with me and especially to my mother for staying with me for the first 72 hours, to Erica for sending me a very thoughtful care package filled with fun clothes!, to Amy for the beautiful flowers and for sitting with me for 2 whole days, to the Goodmans for their love and gorgeous flowers, to Aunt Debbie for the beautiful peace-sign necklace, to Josh and Sam and Spencer and Mary and Eva and Nova and Jess and all the guys at CollegeHumor who have showered me with love and sent me a beautiful floral arrangement, to Nick for the beautiful purple flowers and happy thoughts, to Eric for calling even when I told him not to and for sending me funny emails that made me laugh, to Fallyn for sending me fun gifts from across the country in a Pops box which made me confused and then happy, to Amanda for the gorgeous flowers and for always making me feel peaceful and beautiful, to Sarah for the organic chocolate cupcakes, to Crissy for coming all the way from New Jersey to see me and for bringing amazing mini-cupcakes with her, to Bahar for finding my heart and for helping me get out of the apartment, to Chad and Court for making me homemade chicken soup, to my brother Brett for coming over and watching Step Brothers with me.

I am very loved!  And I am very grateful to feel so loved by all of these amazing people in my life.
