I've been going crazy!!! Instead of SDN, I've been going to eBay...bad idea. I'm now about $100 poorer.😕 I'm not even sure what I won.

Yea, it's finally back!!!

Yay! I've been going through SDN-withdrawl...

How has everyone been filling the time? I went to Miami for a short vacation, it was so nice! 😀 rpames, what cool stuff did you get from ebay???

I got an optometric tie. It looks really nice, it has an eye chart, a few saying like, "Which line is better?" I also won a framed painting of an early 1900 classroom for my fiance, her birthday is in a couple weeks and she is doing her student teaching right now. Both of those things cost only about $10 each. The item that was slightly more expenceive is a Visor edge. I have a Visor Prism, but it is pretty heavy to carry around in a lab coat. Also the color screen on it suck the battery like crazy. The Edge is much lighter and thinner, plus the battery is said to last 4 weeks. It does not tell the number of hours. It will be nice for next year. Thats it I think...and hope!😀

The last thing I got off ebay was a color game boy. Why? I dunno. It's not as much fun as it used to be. I still want to get tetris, but usually shipping is more than the game itself. In Peds, they mentioned that game boy can be used as a vision therapy tool - this made me feel less silly for buying it.

cpw, you are evil for sending me an email about sdn being back up 🙂

rpames, your scrubs avatar is cool.

I went on ebay this past week too!!!! GrrrRrrRrrr I was being so good too. I was able to stay away from buying stuff for the past month. SDN withdrawal SUCKS!!! 🙁

Muahahahha.. it's all part of my evil plot to get EVERYONE to procrastinate from studying for our path test.

And like we needed an excuse to play gameboy. 😉 But, hey, anything to get the kids to do the vision therapy. 😎

Hema,
I made the avatar myself!😀 It is really easy if you download free GIF animation software from www.downloads.com. Scrubs is one of my favorite shows. The others are ER (of course)and M*A*S*H*. My favorite shows always deals with medicine.

Great, now I'm 'busy' making my own gifs and excessively reading sdn posts. Scrubs is such a great show. It cracked me up when JD sang ?she?s got jungle fever.? I also like Ed, so it was a treat when Tom Cavanaugh played JD?s brother a while back. They look strangely alike. Back to making gifs? I mean studying path.

rpames -- my husband has a Visor Edge, and it's really nice. He says it keeps its charge for about a month and recharges quickly. (When I read you were replacing a "prism" at first I thought you were talking about some kinda optometric instrument... 😉 )

I like reading books about medicine -- I'm about 1/2 way through Atul Gawande's "Complications" about his experiences as a surgical resident. It's really interesting and well-written.
