The party is a classic. One of our DVD collection. About that breakfast-you will have to watch your calorie intake. Maybe workout if you aren't already.

I just finished my FINAL DAY at w**k. Now starts my ER. Oooh, I wonder what will happen. I can't predict.

So what did you do today?

I cried all the way from bank on my last day--they had closed early for a long holiday weekend and could not take my Keogh deposit. Relax, even bad starts like that get better and better.

What, no grits? Perhaps this is something only appreciated by us southerners. Don't imagine you see grits on the menu too often in the Seattle-ish area.

Contrats on the ER

So far, today--my first day of ER--feels pretty much like the start of a three-day weekend.
