how crazy is this- not more than a couple of weeks since announcing the upcoming surgery and I've been contacted by a journalist from my home town's local newspaper, The Bundaberg Newsmail. She asked if I would be interested in doing a story about the upcoming operation. She explained they have run a couple of stories about new surgeons or new surgeries now offered in Bundaberg but its always been just from the doctors perspective and they have not had a "human face" to go along with the story (perhaps because people in Bundy are still a bit hesistant to openly talk about plastic surgery). They're also interested because I'm coming TO bundy to have the surgery, where as most people go TO Brisbane or to a bigger city. Of course my main reason is because my parents live there.

I wanted to check with mum first, because the town is so small and pretty much everyone will be able to piece together who I am, who my parents are etc. But she was ok with it, as long as I was. I'm not ashamed of what I'm doing, in fact I'm proud of it. So I agreed to the article. How crazy!

Ahhh the internet and this site. It brings me pain sometimes, but every so often it redeems itself.
