I also mentioned that I drive a Rincoln not a Catarac. She wasn't very happy with my joke. Oh well.

My wife has some anxiety around surgery, and was freaking out a little while talking to the anesthetist before surgery. The anesthetist, being forewarned was able to enhance things to the point that my wife didn't remember anything about the process.
