Gina Bean!

Evan and I decided the best way to not waste the white chocolate we had remaining after making cakeballs was to make Lego minifig candy!

No pics here…Michelle did post a couple on Facebook though! On Wednesday, Jasmine and I smashed up 2 red velvet cakes to make cake balls.  I got 45 roughly quarter-sized balls out of mine, and she made 28 larger ones.  We laughed at the size difference, were saddened by how difficult it was for our [...]

Now, I dislike it as much as the next person when I drop and scratch my phone, but Michelle has taken it to a whole new level.  She has a Blackberry Torch (the new one from AT&T with a slide-out QWERTY keyboard) and she loves it.  She sent me a text today that says, very [...]

Nerdy sisters, I have exciting news.  While in the lounge at work today, one of the interns came in to hang out and use one of the computers.  I don’t remember what we were talking about, but whatever it was caused him to say that something was terrible.  Only…he said, “terr-EE-bleh!” like we do!  I [...]

With very little effort on his part, Obi-Wan convinced me to add one of those single-serving coffee makers to our wedding registry (he said add, but it’d actually be the start of the registry…)  While messing around trying to decide where I want to register for gifts, I found THIS.  A home frappuccino maker!  With [...]

For the first time in what seems like ages, Zack and Joe (and Joe’s girlfriend, Stephanie) came over to hang out tonight for Joe’s birthday.  Before we made our way to Big Truck Tacos though, Zack had gotten the letters Joe and I wrote to ourselves during our senior year in high school from the [...]

I ordered myself a cool new notebook from Jetpens the other day and I plan to use it to make notes and outlines while studying.  The line spacing is perfect for my smaller handwriting (slightly smaller than college rule) and there are faint, evenly-spaced dots along each line to help keep things neat and orderly. [...]

I keep looking at things I want to buy in between patients on adolescent clinic instead of studying like a good resident would.  In my defense though, the latest thing I want are these… More shoes from the Adidas Star Wars line!  HAN SOLO SHOES.  Just what I need to go with my LEGO HAN [...]

And I can’t stop laughing at him.

Look at this!  It would match my Lego watch and my super-awesome Adidas kicks so perfectly!  It even makes me wish my car was silver so it could look a little like the Millennium Falcon…

I got tired of trying to find a working computer in the PICU with a real internet connection, so Evan suggested bringing in our netbook.  It’s awesome!  Now I can check things while on call on Meditech AND play around on Facebook all I want!

To get ready for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows coming out in November, I decided I’d reread the book.  It took all of 3 days and my head is filled with thoughts of wizards and spells and magic, so I’m going to reread Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince next.  Eventually I’ll work my [...]

Evan and I finished Lego Harry Potter and I don’t know what I’m supposed to do with my free time now!  Study?!?  Blech…

My day off isn’t until tomorrow, but that meant I was able to go out tonight for a movie and dinner.  AND Michelle finally got to see the car! Now to go play some LEGO Harry Potter and rest before playing some more tomorrow

The tripod Evan and I ordered for our camera came in, and it makes me want to take even more pictures!  Any ideas, anyone?  The dog’s been through enough for the month, I think
