I live in Northern Minnesota, I went to UMD and got BA with a major in Women Studies, I am happily married for 5 years now and have a cat named Butters.
You really sound alot like me! GL on your surgery on the 11th. I too postponed my date a few weeks up because the date they gave me seemed too soon. Wow! I wonder if that was even the same day. Of course I don't remember now.
