I'm back in my room. My c7-t1 has been fused. I have a pain killer to press every 5 minutes or so. I have some things strapped around my legs with tubes attached. I have no pain. My next surgery is sometime tomorrow. I am allowed to eat ice. This minimum security prison isn't bad; all the guards are very nice, I am reading some travel brochures, Victoria Falls, Cuba, Bali trips... And an AARP magazine.

My favorite sentence

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."

It is very enlightening and thought provoking to think/read/speak this sentence over and over again sequencing through while emphasizing just one word.
