Lightning strikes
a tip for fellow MUA students: unplug your wireless modem when there is crazy thunder and lightning going on. or a *CRACK* right near your house is bound to travel through the phone line and burn it from the inside out, costing you a measly $475EC* to replace.
home internet back up and running. if you sent me an email in the last week, i probably received it. and will probably reply tomorrow.
probably.
still working on that study thing. the 4am’s have returned with a vengeance. pulling out the trampoline to get in training for bouncing back. but i really can’t say it was a surprise that the first block sucked. i mean, come ON. will be taking the dean’s advice and treating every day until Brandon’s birthday as if it was a block day, and every night a block night.
in other news, i walked around the surgical ward rounding on patients in a white lab coat with a stethoscope around my neck for the first time ever this morning. i took a history, i tried to ramble my way through answers to random science quiz questions from the attending, and i stepped on Brandon’s shoes. it was great!
“rounding on patients this morning” – i know there might come a day where that phrase makes me weary from the inside out. but not today. i love where i am and i am so thrilled to be doing the stuff we are doing. life is goood.

*$185CDN – no, there is no “electrical storm” coverage in the Cable & Wireless service plan. and yes, i now own the modem and will probably try to sell it to the next person that moves in here. i might even discount it a buck or two! woo!

That truly was the most insane lightning I think I have ever experienced. I am sad that you had to pay that much money for something so simple especially since you have that great Apple modem you never get to use. I am sure someone will want to buy it from you and everything will work out for the best. Everything ALWAYS does. Going to the hospital with you was amazing today!! I had such a great time and you got to impress me with that amazing brain of yours : ) ; P It is quite sexy how slick your mind works!!

Sorry about your modem. Lighting is bad stuff can sneak in and blow stuff up before you even have time to think about it.
Brandon, thanks for confirming what I have thought about Jen even though I have never met her. BTW nothing more sexy that a cute smart lady doctor.
Good luck cracking the books.
