I am Caffeinated, Please Excuse the Verbal Diarrhea

March 18th, 2010

Spring break turned out to be a smashing success, both in the productivity and fun departments. You should see my apartment sparkle, and Sam and I had what was probably the best time we’ve had together in years. I don’t know how we did it, but we struck the perfect balance between chilling out and doing fun stuff. It was a thing of beauty. We got pedicures, got our eyebrows threaded, shopped, toured a meadery (you guys, did you know meade is tasty, like alcoholic candy?), and had a night out on the town. Man, I love that lady and miss being around her on a regular basis.

Now school is back in session, and it’s getting down to the nitty gritty. It’s going to be constant exams until early May. It is really extremely unfortunate that I’m having one of my episodes of not giving two shits about school right now. It will pass - these bouts always do. But could I have worse timing? Sigh.

I did get my first clinical rotation assignment, and I’ll be spending 6 weeks in southern Oregon living with Colin’s mom. Thank God we like each other, or it could be awkward. My parents are also trying really hard to move out there, and… oh my God I just realized this instant how lonely it would be if they moved away. I have not lived further than one hour from at least one of my parents, EVER. Oh God. I won’t even have Lisa around! Oh God. Anxiety attack. Excuse me for a moment…

Okay that sucked.

But as I was saying, if they manage to move to Oregon by September at least I’ll get to see them while I’m there. Goodness, I can’t believe the clinic I’m going to is going to let me treat patients. I don’t feel at all like I’m qualified to do that yet. But I suppose you can learn a lot in five months. Maybe I’d better study a little more for that skills check tomorrow. Hmmm yeah, I think I will go do that now.
