Well, I had my two month checkup yesterday with my orthopedic surgeon. I went into the meeting with a list a mile long concerning my pains, problems, and challenges. I was told that I was completely normal and that in fact I was ahead of the national norms when they looked at a lot of the things that I am doing.

Dang, I thought I was still struggling. All of the pain, sleeplessness at night, and other things are apparently completely normal. I don’t know what to say. I guess my 60,000 mile checkup found the automobile in good shape.
