Post-Pulmonary

Good news - I have passed cardiac and pulmonary pathology.Went a little crazy with the final - apologies to Mom for not talking to her all week. I wish the weekend were longer... Had some intensive retail therapy with Alisha yesterday -- plus a nature walk in Wissahickon Park. Aaaand I have new sweaters for the season!

Not happy that winter's coming up... The idea of several layers of clothes, ice on my windshield, and sunset at 4:00 just doesn't excite me. And, of course, I'll have to deal with three months of it . . .

Not sure yet if I'll be home for Thanksgiving... Thinking I will -- but I'm not sure what to do about the cat. I'd rather fly than drive, but I'm not sure if it'd be worse to leave him alone for four days or to put him through a plane ride... Well, I still have a couple weeks to figure it out.

Next block is renal/endocrine. I like that there's less physics involved. Plus, these were the systems I did especially well in last year, so that bodes well... Need to get working on Step 1 preparation soon... The exam isn't until May, but it's going to require months and months of studying..... Maybe if I ignore it it'll go away. :)
