I'm feeling pretty good. It's the first day I haven't had to take any power naps. That's probably because I'm not using the pain meds. I am sometimes uncomfortable, but no more so than if I had hit the gym really hard after being out-of shape for a while.

a little numbness. a little soreness. nothing too awful.

I even played with our new toy--The Wii. And, I am now the champion bowler in the house, thank you very much.

Yes, not even surgery can quench my competitive spirit.
