I got my first secondary for med school!!

Hurrah!

Did I mention

I applied for med schools. Everything is in. I am really freaked out.

I miss Oscar

That's it. Even though there are lots of other things to worry about. I miss my dog.

Aberdeen made the Washington Post Express

Yes, for a person who graffiti a message "I love you, come home" in pink spray paint. In this case it maybe "no news is good news."

Not mine but I still claim her

Robin (Kim) Foote Egger had a baby girl this week. . . . and though I can only claim a tenuous connection biologically, I still call this darling girl a mini (really small) part mine as her mother's best friend. Lorie Mae. Could she be any cuter?

I miss . . .

Work battle pay

I believe that work should request an "emotional toll taken" as well as "hours worked." A percentage increase would be added for especially ridiculous days, where you stay at work even though any sane person would quit on the spot. Maybe that is the problem: to work you have to take a certain level of abuse that we should be free to walk away from. Maybe loving your job mitigates the treatment. Maybe there is hope for work. I don't have much of it today.
