Frenchy!

I had an awful day today. First off I have something called a pilonidal cyst which needs operating on and it's been driving me nuts late. Second I had a class at college today which was to be the last class I needed to take to get my B.A in History. When I got there I realized I had signed up for the wrong class, which leaves me desperately trying tomorrow to get into the class I need one day late.

When I got home there was a box on my doorstep and here are it's contents(sorry for the bad picture). I ordered from Frenchy one Butz Choquin pipe. He sent me a ton of extra goodies, and on top of that I've been going nuts buying Stanwells and Comoys in hopes of finding a similar pipe to my dad's old Guildhall. They've all been too big, thansk to Frenchy's detailed descriptions of pipes I got something pretty damn close. I don't have to be at work for another hour and half so thanks to Frenchy I'm enjoying a half bowl of Haunted Bookshop.

Re: Frenchy!

Awesome! Congrats on a great pipe! Yep, Frenchy is a prince. I've bought a few pipes from him and I've never been anything less than thrilled with the transaction.

Re: Frenchy!

Great looking pipe. And maybe this will help a bit as well. I had a similar cyst removed about 40 years ago. Even then, it was a pretty painless procedure from start to finish. I was in the hospital for a day or two, but I'll bet nowadays they'll send you home even quicker.

Re: Frenchy!

Congrats on the pipe. Also good luck with the pilonidal cyst surgery, I have had it twice (multiple problems and infection) and it sucked. Hopefully yours will go better.

Re: Frenchy!

I didn't know what that type of cyst was, so I googled it.

Holy S***!

I sincerely hope everything goes well for you. I live with chronic pain (of another type) and know what it means not to have relief. I'll be rooting for ya.

Re: Frenchy!

Good looking pipe.

What class did you end up in? (I'm a fellow BA in History as well)

Re: Frenchy!

Hey all thanks for the responses. First, don't go googling pilonidal cyst. There are some nasty pictures out there. Mine isn't that bad, but I fear it will get to that point, so I'm looking to a surgery at the end of this semester.

NHsmoker, you will know exactly what I mean by saying this thing is a pain in the ass.

joeysmac,
It's a bread and butter history course, USA History to 1877. My department chair told me the one I took at a previous college wouldn't count towards my degree, so here I sit with all the 18 year old girls...guess it's not so bad.

Yeah I know what you mean. Mine was very bad (draining through a sinus) and I was out of work for 3 months between the two surgerys.
