[EM2BE]

[Hard24Get]

NOW I'm leaving. G'night!

 

[EM2BE]

Might actually have to watch that one.

 

[EM2BE]

Night. I should sleep too. Early morning for me...

Who sleeps?

 

[Powdermonkey]

Who sleeps?

Honestly?

 

[Powdermonkey]

Honestly?

Its so dreadfully over rated.

 

[Powdermonkey]

Its so dreadfully over rated.

I do wish it was easier for me to fall asleep however.

come.

Woo hoo. Hope everyone got what they wanted for match day. Sleep well future ER docs. I'll check back tomorrow.

 

[EM2BE]

Wow..you came back rose. Obviously my body thinks sleep is overrated too.

 

[pseudoknot]

I wish I could sleep right now. Someone is snoring at my station and it is VERY loud.

And I had a root canal today

At least tomorrow is almost guaranteed to be a better day...

 

[Hard24Get]

Who sleeps?

where the heck have you been!

Too smart for your own good.

[hyperbaric]

so now that the match is over, can i expect programs to confirm my aways?

 

[sleepymed]

this is true... she walks around with cell papers in her bag.

 

[enfuegoEP]

And I had a root canal today

My heart goes out to you pseudo. That would definitely destroy my post-match euphoria.

BTW...Does anyone know the difference between sea salt and....Non-sea salt. There's the obvious point of orgin, but why does it taste different? Salt is salt right

 

[Powdermonkey]

Yeah, but normal table salt is usually iodized, sea salt isnt. I think its more pure. So you get some iodine that you probably wouldnt get in your diet by eating normal table salt.

 

[Powdermonkey]

where the heck have you been!

I missed you too, dear! I have been slacking. Doing as little as possible. Snowboarding mainly though, and its tough to get an internet connection up on the mountain . I should be back though. At least until rafting season starts up. But Im here to it up with the best of them.

That really sounds like it feels good.... I think my fellow residents are gonna hate me when we are on call, because not only do I snore, I talk in my sleep (sometimes yell). I wonder if I have sleep apnea sometimes, because the girl always has to wake me up and get me to roll over when I start snoring too loud. She beats me up in my sleep. And I never remember any of it.

For the record, the Tampa officials in the NCAA had to have been bought off by the Cuban mafia or something.
I've never seen such poor officiating AND all 4 lower seeds win.

Not for awhile.
Wait and call/e-mail them first of April. They're still trying to figure out the match stuff now.

So if someone gets her stuff in before April 1, she should be ok?

 

[deleted109597]

Usually. Any earlier than that they don't often look at them. Trust me.

 

[deleted109597]

Although some places are weird and have other deadlines. Those places often have student coordinators that aren't involved in the match though.

 

[SoCuteMD]

My only problem was that most places don't even have their 2008-2009 calendars up yet!

But with the right pain meds, give you a totally different kind of euphoria.

You guys make me feel so much better! I've been pushing my bf to get some of his rotations set up, yet he keeps procrastinating. He did finally set up June, and he's taking July off, so I guess he'll be fine until then.

 

[EM2BE]

Then again with the DO thing, maybe March 1 is a better reference date (one month earlier match = 1 month earlier to contact them)

 

[EM2BE]

It's sad. I think my immediate family has more drama than my relationship with my bf. My dad called me yesterday or the day before to see if I knew something. Been in class since then, called me as soon as I got out of class today to see if I heard yet. Ummm...ya...been in class since you last talked to me. I'll let you know when I hear. gah.

You're always welcomed in Tampa..even though there's poor NCAA officiating.

I'm still finishing up third year in June.

 

[Dr. Dukes]

Traveling totally wipes me out...

 

[EM2BE]

So do we, but he got his elective rotation that month, and chose to do it at a site that actually has a residency program he is interested in.

 

[Dr. Dukes]

Where is everyone?

 

[EM2BE]

Traveling totally wipes me out...

That and Kaplan and class and studying wipe me out. Heck, half the time sleeping wipes me out. I woke up the other day exhausted (because I ran all night in a dream) so I had to get another night's sleep.

 

[EM2BE]

Where is everyone?

I'm here!!!!!!!!!

 

[Dr. Dukes]

[Dr. Dukes]

I think I might go to bed soon, I don't think I've ever been more tired from doing less...

 

[EM2BE]

Yes I know, I sound like a lazy bum. These meds are messing with my head. As soon as I adjust to them, the dr changes them on me.

 

[EM2BE]

I think I might go to bed soon, I don't think I've ever been more tired from doing less...

I understand though. Have to get up at 6 tomorrow Earliest I've had to get up in a long time.
