Quick Thought

Just in case you were wondering.

Also, there has been some progress on med school applications. Things are looking up this year!!

I guess I need to shower

I didn't feel very well for a while this morning - it's all good now. But, I told Erin I felt like poop earlier and Ana heard it. She just didn't hear it exactly like I said it. A little while later she told Erin "Daddy smell like poop mama."

Quick Holiday Thought

It goes straight from Halloween to Christmas in all the stores. Sometimes they actually have both seasons out at the same time. What happened to Thanksgiving? Is it weird to anyone else that the Thanksgiving season is completely overshadowed by the gimmegimme candy time and then Christmas decorations?

First Draft

Here is the first draft of my personal statement for my med school application:

I am the coolest person ever. Please admit me to medical school. I will love you forever. Really.


I don't know why anyone would need the whole page they give you...

All talked out

I think one reason I haven't been posting very often lately is that we are still living with my parents and close to so much family. A lot of the kinds of things I would say here end up being said to at least a couple different people before I get a chance to use the computer. Just so you know...

Quick Thought

When someone calls you in the morning and wakes you up, do you try your hardest to make them think you have been awake for hours? I do. I don't really know why.

I did it this morning and did a pretty good job of it. Just ask Erin.

Quick Thought

Apparently "zygosity" is a real word. I bet you've always wondered. Any guesses to what it means?

Quick Thought

We were in IF today and made a stop at the DI. We saw something pretty funny there. If only I would have had a camara.

It was a VHS copy of the nativity video that the church put out a while ago for Christmas. It was still in it's brand new shrink wrap. On it was a printed sticker that read:

To the Thurgood family, from the Bishopric. Merry Christmas

Yeah...

So, after Ana went to bed, Erin and I made these mini Christmas wreaths to take to friends and neighbors (the ones who are still around anyway). It was fun, they are way good. After making the first batch I went to the store and got some mint M&M's to use in decorating them. When I got back, Erin pointed out to me that I had a thin green marshmallow strand stuck from my lip nearly to the bottom of my chin. Yeah, I went to the store and even talked to the cashier for a while. Everyone knew that I had sniched while making treats.

Quick Thought

As I was cleaning up Ana's throw up just as dinner was ending I thought to myself, "This could have been a lot harder to deal with. Amazingly, taco soup looks pretty much the same after coming back up."
