I find the government's priorities completely out of order.  On the eve of a likely government shut down, just thinking about the hypocrisy of approving a budget that will be blatantly ignored makes me a little crazy.  But on to more pleasant things.

After my stint in Texas, I spent a glorious 2 weeks in Des Moines, slept in my own bed, and spent every possible minute with Aaron.  I was even glad to see Meggin (the cantankerous dog).  It wasn't all fun and games though; I worked at MMCC least one day, and spent the rest studying for COMLEX PE and CE.  I flew to Philly for less than a day to take the (stupid) practical exam, and the next week I rocked the multiple choice portion.  When I wasn't studying I was working on residency applications and dragging my feet about writing a personal statement, which I find to be the most painful task on the planet.  It's all a bit of a blur, but I'm sure we did a few fun things (I hope?), something beyond my much anticipated daily walk to the mailbox & garden (thrilling).  Unfortunately I can't think of anything at the moment, which is terrible. 

So, in retrospect, it might not been exciting enough a time period to be post-worthy, but to me it was fantastic and just what I needed.  NYC memories next time!
