Jon took this one of me on what has to be one of the best days of my life.

Okay, and you're not going to elaborate on that story?
P.S. Cute hair.

Ah, yes, the "procedure" and the reconvening of! How well do I remember those days! Here's how the conversation went at OUR house:
D: But the doctor said six weeks! I asked him! He said you'd be back to normal in six weeks! It's six weeks TODAY!
Me: Go to hell.

yippee--i'm number one!!! for some reason, this reminds me of those super big Express or Limited ads they have in their windows at the mall. (or that they did the last time i went to the mall ages ago...) isn't it great to look back at photos from a certain day and have those feelings come back to you? oh, i just love it.

or maybe not... sorry about that! :)

Maybe my procedure will reconvene; I could use a good day too!!! Best wishes!

On my son's six week birthday, my husband asked if we were going to "reconvene" later on that night. I said, "Sure, if you don't mind me screaming bloody murder during the entire 'procedure.'"

Pretty happy lady! The best kind.

Don't feel bad Trudie....I thought I was number one too. But having seen others in the past proclaim "YES! NUMBER ONE!!" And then having their post be, say, number FOUR, I decided to refrain from exuberant celebration and be humble...lo and behold, sure enough, I was number 3. Someday, Trudie, someday....:)

oooh pretty! love the hair...

Nice! Are you going to explain why that was the best day? Or at least which day it was?! And if not, that's cool, we can all use our imagination! That might be a bit dangerous, though.

Maybe it was the day she came home, finally *feeling better* for the first time in many months. That's the first thing that comes to mind when I use my imagination. Having cried over dooce posts for three days, I, too, was ecstatic on the day she came home.

I didn't want to say anything about it but I've been patiently waiting for the story of this great day ever since the hellish story of the food poisoning on the plane.
09.23.04 - 05:50 AM / 13Carrs said:
I am still patiently waiting for the Chuck aquisition story. So glad you are feeling better all over.
09.23.04 - 05:55 AM / 14Gavinator said:
And they said diagonal stripes were out this season.... hogwash.
Still waiting on the rest of the story. The best days in my life rarely involve public transportation. Things must be different in Utah.

I thouht it was one of your taken-in-front-of-a-mirror photos, but then I saw that Jon took it. What's going on there?

Ah. It's a bus shelter..... as the title of the post says. [Stupid Max.]
09.23.04 - 06:40 AM / 17Jazzy said:
I am guessing this best day of your life might have something to do with the reconvening of the procedure?
09.23.04 - 06:21 AM / 18stinkerbell said:
proceedure reconvened (I need to find me someone to convene with ASAP) and a good hair day!! yes it looks like you are one happy chick. No one deserves it more!
09.23.04 - 06:22 AM / 19sanelurker said:
Congrats to reconvening the procedure! I didn't know it was common to be out of order for that long - I guess I was very lucky!
P.S. Current favorite phrase of my daughters and I - "bottom system" teehee

That photo has snazz!
Congratulations on reconvening the procedure! I try not too worry that I/we may have to endure something like that one day. Sucks. Leta, why did you have to be so big? (But we LOVE you, Leta!)
And calling it the procedure was awfully damn sharp of you. I envy your cleverness, Heather Armstong.

My neighbor reconvened the procedure a little too soon...she was pregnant again before she even went back for her six week check up!! She's 20, so her stuff must not only be able to fold sheets, but it must be on steroids too.
09.23.04 - 07:28 AM / 22Judy said:
My friend was a single mom, so not being able to reconvene the procedure right away wasn't an issue, but the thing that helped you be ready to reconvene the procedure? That thing Jon wrote a letter about? She couldn't use that thing for *years* after her daughter was born. Her procedure didn't reconvene for about 6 years.
09.23.04 - 07:29 AM / 23Dana said:
Wow. I had to read the post and each and every comment before I finally understood what the hell "reconvening the procedure" meant. Then, I had to go back and read the post and replace "reconvene the procedure" with the proper word in order to understand it.
I don't have children, obviously, since at first I thought you were referring to some post-delivery surgery that all women must have.
09.23.04 - 07:54 AM / 24Lori said:
I'm only 21 weeks and the procedure is pretty much uninteresting to me now. Pass the cheese curls.
I'm starting to feel sorry for my husband. Oh no, wait... he's not going to have the PAIN, so I guess he gets the suffering...

you never did tell us about that glorious day in San Francisco . . .
09.23.04 - 08:22 AM / 26Moxie said:
My guess coming from personal experience.....one of your best days has something to do with the words...UTI....Cipro...relief.
09.23.04 - 08:23 AM / 27sarcastic journalist said:
umm.....I'll let you borrow my sick baby and my sick husband if you'll tell us about that happy day in SF.
09.23.04 - 08:26 AM / 28Mir said:
Cool pic. And congrats on the reconvening. ;)

Here is a hint. Why wait for the vagina to "reconvene"? There is a reason why God gave women an asshole and mouth. Sorry to sound crude, but since dooce likes to talk about that part of her anatomy, I thought I'd chime in.
