Last week was a week of call, followed by an Earthquake on Tuesday, Hurricane on Saturday-Sunday. Sort of a week of disasters on so many fronts. Happy to start a new week, happy to hopefully get back to being productive.

Pacers, Bugs and Bodyaches

I love it when I run and find someone just about my speed to push me a little further. I dislike eating bugs at sunset. I especially dislike when my left knee starts acting up...

Aug 22: Lower Loop Prospect Park

Beautiful night. Perfect weather. Couldn't ask for a better run. Other than the nagging knee pains.

Been feeling lazy lately. Lots of running at night, doing the bare minimum to get it in. Feeling in a funk right now. Gonna have to try to work my way out of it.

Back on Call

So last weekend was my weekend off...except it felt like a weekend on since I was on the phone with residents and fellows all night Friday, all day Saturday and early Sunday morning. And then I had to take call this weekend because the first year fellow couldn't do two weekends in a row. So I'm on now. But hell, I make the plan so it's fine with me.

So tomorrow I'm going to try to round "quick" - discharge some people home to essentially leave me with 2 patients on each side. Then I'm going to enjoy the day and plan to spend the rainy Sunday working on research projects, hopefully finishing all 3 abstracts to submit.

It's a new month...
That's starting month 14 of fellowship.
Starting month 32 of running.
That means...
22 months left of fellowship.
And a lot longer of running.
