My Nuptuals are Impending...

...and it feels wonderful.

Many of you I'll see this weekend, for the wedding. Others I'll see later on, after we're back from a week in Vegas, baby!

One anticipated highlight: finding a cinema near the Strip, so we can see the new Indiana Jones.

See ya post-matrimony, everybody.

gsnlzzxhwgh!

Hey marathoners and people who run, like, 10K's,

Do the last few yards make you feel like you want to finish because you're happy and proud to have made it this far? Or is it more that you want to finish because if the aggravation kills you dead on the spot, while that would be a blessed relief it would also mean you won't have the pleasure of saying "I'm never doing THAT again"?

Oh, there's good news too. I had my white-coat ceremony, so my own classmates were looking like the stylized figures in the header image. We got to take a practice version of the national boards exam I'll do a little more than a year from now, after I've graduated. I passed. I was actually a touch above the class average. In theory, then, the real boards should be just fine.

But who wants to concentrate on the positive stuff? I'm tired, finals are next week, and sitting in a chair looking at PowerPoint presentations for a year has helped me gain 10 to 15 pounds. I'd rather be ONLY concentrating on the wedding (yayy!).

Anyway, that's my deal. Big fun coming up.
