Nice pic! I got to go out in the snow a little too, to shovel the driveway and then to get some Christmas shopping done :) Other than that, staying in and keeping warm!

Yes it is such a relief to be done! Two weeks of nothing.. it's already flying by despite the fact that I was snowed in for three days :) The food scale sounds like a really useful present. Think I'm getting an iPod touch and a snowboarding trip.. one IS exercise and the other I can use while exercising :) What are you doing over your vacation?

Hey there,
Thanks for the comment on my blog. Good to see another health care professional (or future one in my case) on here! Did you lift throughout med school? And also I see you are an internist.. I am interested in IM as well, but subspecializing in GI. Anyway your abs are looking good.. keep up the work!

Hahah, I use that one but use Brains instead of Balls/Boobs haha.. also there's one for the branches of CNV (eg V1 = "easy as 1, 2, 3" for the diff branches) and I'll have many many more over the weekend.. just saw one for the maxillary artery (DAM I AM Piss Drunk But Stupid Drunk I Prefer, Must Phone Alcoholics Anonymous"). Seriously these things are my lifesavers!

PS.. I don't know how I would survive medical school without pnemonics. Especially for the cranial nerves!!

Haha, why don't you like kids? I like them, but I can see why they may be difficult/non-compliant patients.. also if they're young, can't really get info from them by asking questions.

Interesting.. I actually shadowed in the ICU for a month this past summer and a lot of the patients were in a comatose state. Have you thought about EM?

Haha, micro calves.. it's funny how much genetics comes into play in terms of our physique. I don't think I could shrink mine if I wanted! Just like how it is so challenging to lose the fat in my abdominal region haha.. Won't have to deal with I-95 until New Year's, hoping no one is gonna be traveling on the 31st.. we shall see!

haha, the digestive tract was by far my favorite section of anatomy! And I listened to a GI doc speak and I liked the idea about being able to do minor procedures and (yes I'm saying this) colonoscopies. What are YOU interested in??

Well you're back on track right after the holiday weekend so I think that's good. I did very little traveling, went to my parents' house which is just two hours away. I'm very lucky to live so close to home!
