It’s good to feel (mostly) normal again. That was one heck of an ordeal… but 2 ER visits, 3 doctor’s visits, 3 prescriptions, and 2 weeks later I’m back on my feet. Unfortunately, I still don’t have all my energy back and can’t play any contact sports for another month and a half (for me any sport involving other people… or the ground, is a contact sport).
I’ve actually been working at home the past week, but I went into the office for the first time in nearly 3 weeks today. It’s funny how quickly things change… last week when I just started working again I found out that my technical lead (Sami Shalabi) was leaving IBM. Bummer. Major bummer. Sami is a great guy, amazing programmer, and was a blast to work with and learn from. I certainly wish the best for Sami and I can’t thank him enough for all the experience I gained working side by side with him for the past nine months.
Thanks to everyone that talked, called, IMed, sent me a card, or visited. I definitely appreciate it.
Here’s a picture of what I missed at the baseball game I was supposed to go to on my birthday. Thanks Cindy, sorry I had to miss it.

Awww that’s really sweet that she did that. I’m glad to hear that you’re finally feeling well, but be sure to continue to get enough sleep and everything, Mono can be really hard to get rid of if you don’t take care of yourself!
Hey tim haven’t talked in a long time! Yeah mono??? hmmmm… hahaha. Well glad to hear that you got better. Hope you’re all fully better now b/c you’re all about energy. Except those times when u’ve completely exerted it all on sports i guess. But yeah hope all is well and hope to talk to you soon. take care buddy
Glad to hear that you are back on your feet again. Sorry I didn’t get a chance to talk to you while you were under the weather, although I hope that you got a few of my IMs. It’s unfortunate about Sami… just the way the corporate world works I guess. Anyway, we’re all looking forward to your next foray into MD territory. Let us know when that will be. In the meantime, I will try to resume posting in my blog after a 6 month hiatus to give you the opportunity to stay more up to date on what’s going on here.
Talk to you later Tim!
