I had a follow up with my surgeon in Wichita today and got a good report. He said everything seems to be going well. I am to make an appointment for four weeks from now and if I’m feeling fabulous by then to cancel it. He spoke like he didn’t expect to see me again.
While I was on the way to Wichita, there was much excitement at my office building. My office is on the second floor and on the first floor is an attorney’s office. Apparently early this afternoon a gentleman came into the office there and took five people hostage. He released them pretty quickly from what I understand, but an hours long standoff ensued, ending when law enforcement used tear gas.
Fortunately, it’s the weekend tomorrow and I’m guessing any residual smell will be gone by Monday. I have no experience with tear gas but I’m guessing a smell is involved.
I’m not sorry I missed the excitement. I don’t think the stress of a hostage situation is something I need to add into my life at the moment.
This is a prime example of you just never know what to expect any day when you wake up.
