thanks to steve

(As it turned out, it wasn't even the most shocking moment of the day -- not when the "24" brain trust decided to kill off President David Palmer. How can you kill off the greatest fake president ever? Who would do such a thing? That was the most traumatic Hollywood death since Curtis Jackson was gunned down at the liquor store during the second season of the "White Shadow." Heck, I was planning on voting for Palmer two years from now -- instead, I have to vote for Kevin Kline. Plus, every time I see an Allstate commercial, I'm going to expect Dennis Haysbert to get gunned down right in the middle of a busy intersection. What an outrage. Can't they bring him back for Season Six under the old "Um, he never really died, he was just in a coma, and now he's fine!" angle?)

new thoughts on my resolution

i dont think an hour a week is going to work, i dont think i will do it.
so my resolution is now 2 days a week for january - march (which i have met) and then 3 days a week in may and april. feb and march are going to be q4 call, so it will be hard to get ANYTHING done then, so 2 days a week will be enough. april and may are going to be more regular hours, so 3 days a week then.

also...this is something really funny that a guy in our class sent out recently


137 days until Honors Day!*

USMLE STEP I: $500
USMLE STEP II(CK): $500
USMLE STEP II(CS): $1,000+

*note, honors day is UC COM jargon for graduation.

oh blah

so, i slept poorly last night, neal was up in dayton and it pains me to admit that i just dont sleep as well without him, and i dont know why.
i got up early this morning to work out again, that was 20 minutes ago, so far i have dicked around online. it aint happening today. this is the 3rd week of the year and i have yet to make my goal of one hour a week on the bike, but it may happen this week. also, i think my plan of going up 30 minutes a week per month is unreasonable especially since both february and march are heavy call months and i dont know when i would do it. i guess i need to eat better. damnit!
i had a bizarre dream last night about bill tatalovich. i dreamt that we were in band but it was today, but it was with people who were in band when we were, and i didnt have my clarinet (it was a sit down band) and i was hiding cause i thought wayne would be mad, and then i saw bill in the front row and he got up and left, and i thought, hell, i can leave too then, so i was going to leave. then wayne yelled at some weird poseur guy who aparrently got his 14 year old daughter pregnant and chased the guy around the room, so i really escaped quickly. then i ran into bill and he had an afro that was kind of parted on his right side, and he was wearing light blue, which was strange. then we went outside and then i woke up. it was weird.
but, as neal said in his blog (truly, i hate that word, i cant think of words MUCH nerdier than that) i have wondered what happened to people recently....eh.
