Like checking in for a flight, only different

You know how you can check in for a flight for up to 24 hrs before you
take off? Apparently, you can now do the same thing for surgery.

Tomorrow, bright and early, I have hernia repair surgery. So, I just
got done with the screening process a few moments ago.

It's actually quite efficient - I spent 20 minutes on the phone with a
nurse yesterday, 3 minutes in pre-op screening today, and hopefully a
shorter ordeal tomorrow.

At the moment, I'm still quite cool about this whole experience. The
surgeon assured me this is safe, and not a big deal. We'll see if I can
keep up this composure tomorrow at 6:30am.
