Knee Repair Today!

Today is the big day: arthroscopic surgery to deal with the torn meniscus in my right knee.

I’m just about ready to walk over to the surgery center now since I’m supposed to arrive by 7:30 though the procedure isn’t scheduled until 9:00. And yes, I did say “walk over”—the surgery center is literally two blocks from my home and I loved the irony of walking over to get my knee surgery! My folks will be there later to pick me up.

I will keep everyone posted on developments, but don’t expect any difficulties…

New Domain

Work slowly begins on my blog/web transition.

First, this personal blog, as of December 15th, has its own domain: dougkendrick.me

At some point over the holidays, I will move everything from my dpkworldwide blog over here and then change that one into my business blog. It is also quite likely that I will finally make the leap from my past hosted website over to a WordPress-only platform (but I have to figure out how to keep all my legacy stuff intact, especially my 2006 & 2008 Japan blogs).

Stay tuned!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Lots of best wishes to all my friends and readers for a wonderful holiday.

May you take a moment to reflect on everything you can be thankful for this year, given all the troubles in the world. Much of that comes from people not being grateful for what they have or giving thanks where it’s due–don’t be one of those people…

Yay!

Yippee! My new iPhone 4S (Unlocked, Black, 64GB) has been delivered to the FedEx office near my house where it is being held for pickup. I’m now only a few hours away from finally having it in my hands!

a new, personal blog

I started thinking: You know, I should probably split my personal blogging items into a different place than the blog I want to use for my eventual “business” blogging.

Ergo, dougkendrick.wordpress.com

However, I may not be using this one for a while–but I will eventually get all the stuff out of my other blog and over here…

Patience is…

Its now 4:00 AM on Friday, October 7th—the big iPhone 4S pre-order day. I woke up about 20 minutes ago to get a drink of water and decided to go online and order my new dream machine: a black, unlocked, 64GB iPhone 4S.

Only to find out that the unlocked models are “Coming in November”!

Guess I will have to be patient for another 4 weeks…

MRI Results are in…

My doctor just called with my results: it IS a tear in my meniscus–and a tear in my ACL to boot. I’ll be referred to an orthopedic surgeon and get more details later, but it looks like it means surgery. Bad news? Hardly–at least I know what it is and how it can get fixed. Besides, I’ve done it before on the other leg in ’06.
