SICK of drying out!!!!!!!

[AquaHump]

I was cut open to have bypass done on my leg. they made a 24 inch cut from the top of my leg to the foot. That happend on 05/05/06 I was told this week that I would not be able to get back in the water until the end of june!!!!!! the only thing that I can say is that my dive on the 06/24/06 is a afternoon trip with Olympus in Morehead city. I am going back in Aug for a days of diveing. This sitting around and waiting is driveing me nuts. Just had to vent thanks for reading.

I read the thread title and was gonna say,"quit hitting the bottle" but I guess that don't apply. I get to start diving finally after my severly cut finger incident very soon. So I feel your pain. Although, when you get the nerve it don't hurt much.

Thanks every one for all the kind words.

I know how you feel I just got done my Dive Master and had to turn down a chance to crew the Ol'Salty II last week. I miss all my diving friends and I miss the water.
