Except for the fact that I got my stitches removed today! All ~40 of them. :P They just put tape on the scar for now, as extra support to make sure it doesn’t open up (boy that’d be bad).

I’d upload a photo or two, but Jasmine has my digital camera while she’s in Peru. She’s got to get up at 5 am in the morning (Saturday) to go on the Inca trail. They’re one hour behind us there, so that means it will be 6 am here. ;)

She seems to be enjoying her stay there…when she’s not feeling sick from some of the food.

In other news, Google changed their favicon today (or was it yesterday evening?). Well, I personally don’t care much for the new favicon. It’s a lowercase “g” instead of being uppercase.
