fracturing my right scaphoid bone. So. It was on a great, relatively flat ride north out of SF, and I biked 35 miles home with a bad wrist (it hurt, but I didn't know it was broken). I showed Otis my wrist, and it didn't look or feel terrible, so I waited a day to see how it developed. I spent Sunday testing out my left-handed frolf game--apparently it's only 1-2 strokes per hole worse than my right-handed game! By Sunday night, after leisurely drinks and light dinner at the Beach Chalet with Otis & Elle, George, and Dan & Lisa, I knew something was up, so Otis called ahead to the ED at UCSF and they had me in and out in 2 hours.Today, the chair of the path department arranged an appointment for me with a hand surgeon for tomorrow afternoon, but the whole insurance debacle is becoming a nuisance. The first day of residency was painless, in the job/academic sense. If only it had been in the physical/bureaucratic sense.
Anyway, last week I spent three lovely days in the Russian River valley with Allison, Karen, and Adam. We hiked, fished, dined, and generally en
joyed each other's company. I wish I had the patience to write more details--maybe when my left-handed typing skills improve.

Maybe you should stay in bed every June 30th. But then, who knows?.... a toilet seat may come crashing down from the sky!
Hope your injury doesn't affect your biking or work.
Heal well!
Love,
Aunt Bonnie
It's good to see old friends on here. I haven't seen Allison in so long. She and Karen both look the same. And you too. Glad your adventures in California haven't killed you yet and glad you're enjoying yourself.
