After a several month hiatus, I thought I'd pop in and drop an entry into the blogosphere. It has been a very busy winter, with non-stop traveling for interviewing and socializing. I can't complain about the socializing, but nonetheless I am excited that we have ZERO plans this upcoming weekend. We have so much free time -- maybe we will even take down the Christmas tree!
I do have a job this weekend though. I have to actually, finally, formally finish my Match List. And any time I reenter my list, Glen also has to reenter his list because of the lovely couple's match system. I haven't felt this stressed out in months. Can't someone just make it for me?
On top of that, the winter is really getting to me. We have gotten an all-time record amount of snow in Philly, mostly from two multi-foot storms we got back-to-back last week; the piles are still thigh-high. The roads are narrowed, missing lanes. Parking is atrocious. And, we're supposed to get more next week. Luckily, I only have one more week of driving in it, and I think my frustration level will go way down when I can go back to just myself sliding on the ice as I *walk* to work, instead of me and my several ton vehicle sliding as I drive.
One thing I wanted to brag about quickly -- I just cleaned out my inbox!!! Emails had been backing up since September 2008 when I started my surgery rotation. I reached a height of 750+ unread emails in my inbox, with thousands of total emails. I did some work on it a few months ago, and I've been hovering just below 200 unread emails and 1000 total emails, which I had come to think was pretty good. But tonight with nothing better to do and some nervous pre-Match energy, I have conquered the box and left myself with ZERO unread and just a couple dozen that need some sort of action. Now that I have this sweet feeling of accomplishment, I can head to sleep, hopefully to return to the blog sometime within a shorter time period than the last hiatus.
Happy 2010!!! An exciting year to come.
