Subjects will be stratified based on surgery type and randomized to receive a serratus plane block with either bupivicaine HCL or placebo. All patients will receive standard intraoperative anesthesia and standard postoperative pain control. The primary endpoint is the amount of opioid administered postoperatively. Secondary endpoints include postoperative pain intensity at timed intervals, amount of opioid administered intraoperatively and postoperatively, incidence of nausea and vomiting, time to discharge and patient satisfaction
