So I begged and they sent me home today. I had a hip installed yesterday. It's crazy high-tech how good the medical teams are nowadays with joint replacements. Still, I probably pushed it coming home early, so I'll start icing it down in a few minutes, after I get into the second third of my first Drew Estate Liga Privada #9 Robusto! I've been waiting for the right occasion to smoke this baby, and I think this counts! Ohhhh yeah what a great cigar. Thanks to all for the advice and well-wishes; it really helps. And I'd be remiss if I didn't also thank DE for making one damn fine cigar!
