Social Life?

Jun 03, 2014

As the time for my surgery approaches I have begun to realize things I'll miss. The biggest is the potential loss of my social life. I enjoy going out to eat with friends or even by myself. I enjoy having a beer every now and then and watching a game at my local watering hole. So much of my social interaction revolves around food and drink it is hard for me to see past it. How do you keep up with friends that you are already struggling to keep up with when you lose the one opportunity you've had to get together. "Hey let's get together for lunch. You can eat and I'll sit there watching you eat."

But I suppose I can find other ways. As one of my friends put it, "Instead of meeting for drinks,we'll meet for walks." Maybe I'll join a gym or some exercises classes, but if I couldn't do that before the surgery what makes me think I can do it after?

This is going to be interesting.
