Evan and I went over to Zack and Ashley’s tonight for my haircut (gasp!) and to hang out. We tried out JR’s BBQ restaurant (I don’t recommend it) and watched Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist (I recommend JR’s over this). Soooo, here’s the pre-haircut picture. Stay tuned and you’ll see the after picture, when I’m [...]
Tomorrow, the hair will be gone. So tonight, for the first time in I don’t know how long, I actually fixed my hair instead of just half blow-drying it (enough to get my bangs sort of the way I want them). I’m excited and nervous. And I’m sure I’ll miss it at first, but it’ll [...]
Ginas get grumpy when on call: grumbling, mumbling, through it all. But rumbling, tumbling, wherewithal, is all the sweeter, after call.
Today after noon conference was our super shower for the 5 residents having babies this year. Lots of cute clothes and accessories all around, plus some delicious, wonderful cake. Justin and his wife already had their baby, Trinity’s due in March, and then Lisa H, Courtney, and Kyle’s wife are all due late April/early May. [...]
Two years ago, as a third year medical student struggling to see the light after finishing my surgical clerkship, I started pediatrics on the wards and was eagerly looking foward to not dealing with the crazies found in surgery anymore. In the midst of RSV season though, I quickly got bored with the lack of [...]
Friday we took Moira to the vet again for some shots and her yearly (twice yearly?) check-up. When we used to take her all the time, back in puppyhood, she didn’t particularly like going but got pretty familiar with the routine. Friday though, since she hadn’t been in since August, she wasn’t exactly on her [...]
Here is the first in what I hope will be weekly installments of a comic featuring some of the silly stuff that goes on at work. I try to refrain from talking too much about the hospital since I know it’s not of much interest to most but it is a big part of my [...]
I spent more hours than I’d like to admit playing computer games today. That’s all I’ll say about that. It’s now way past my bedtime.
My brain cells are gone! I think they all died slow, painful deaths while I was on call in the ER last night. I wanted to write about something a bit more meaningful tonight but the truth is, I can’t pull my head together enough to do that. So, instead, I bring you Conan O’Brien [...]
What do you think? Maybe about half an inch or so longer than that past my chin? I won’t be coloring my hair, of course. Last time I did that, five years ago, I immediately regretted it because my hair was so dry and prone to split ends. And I’m too cheap and lazy to [...]
Evan and I talked the other night about new things to do on my blog and he came up with a fantastic idea. I’ve already run it by Jasmine and my sisters, who seemed to like it too. Staying mum for now =) BUT, you should see something new starting Sunday.
Last month, I wrote a post drooling over the HTC Fuze. My phone will be eligible for upgrade soon and I was so ready to get the newer version of my phone. And then, lo and behold, this week is the Mobile World Congress. Microsoft announced Windows Mobile 6.5 and HTC made me forget all [...]
Sundays are typically spent heading down to south OKC to visit our families and spend some time with them since we’re so busy during the week. For Moira, Sundays are when she and Jack get together for their fight-dates. When Evan’s mom first got Jack, we were all convinced Moira would be all over him [...]
I had a nice short day at work with Dr. Naifeh as our new attending. She’s pretty speedy. I had a yummy lunch with Evan. I had a fun time hanging out with my mom and sisters. Then I had a great time playing LOTRO. My little hobbit’s level 50 now! Yay! I got a [...]
I hadn’t been on call in about two weeks and had kind of forgotten how miserable it can be. 24 hours really isn’t all that bad, but when I have to go round on my patients again after not sleeping all night and say, “no, I’m afraid you can’t go home yet because your son [...]
