"Perhaps I'm old and tired, but I always think that the chances of finding out what really is going on are so absurdly remote that the only thing to do is to say hang the sense of it and just keep yourself occupied." -Douglas Adams

And Fall Break is almost over

Wednesday, October 19th, 2011

It’s been a rough month. I was kinda struggling with school, balancing any studying with kids and work (and LYC. Cause really? Reading 50 pages of cardiology or hanging with a cool dude doing fun stuff?). I actually have a post from Oct 6th in draft form that kinda rants about all this (minus the [...]

A break

Wednesday, September 21st, 2011

I’m taking the next 2 weekends off from work. It’s just been one thing after another (nothing bad, just busy busy life) and I’m going to run myself into the ground if I’m not proactive about taking care of myself. Or I want to be a bit lazy at the expense of my banking account [...]

Work in progress

Wednesday, August 17th, 2011

Sheesh, times flies when you have way too little of it. First, happy birthday to my sister Sarah! I totally missed mentioning Zach’s 14th birthday last week, didn’t I? Oops. I didn’t forget it in “real life” so it’s all good. Things are better for the most part. Well the money situation still sucks. I [...]

It’s Thursday?

Thursday, July 28th, 2011

The weirdest thing about working nights is that you start on one day and finish on another. And then you often go back in on the same day you just worked. So I did “3 twelves in a row” this week which was Monday night to Tuesday morning, Tuesday night to Wednesday morning, Wednesday night [...]
