  • Hasta Luego, San Diego

    Roughly eighteen months ago I made the decision to pursue an epilepsy fellowship in a chaotic process that ended with a position at Stanford. Today, I’m faced with the obvious consequence of my choices: I had to move out of San Diego. The quasi-academic nature of postgraduate medical training leaves little time for major life…

  • One Year

    One year ago today, I asked Rachel to marry me, and she said “yes.”

  • Soup and Ice Cream

    That’s pretty much the extent of my diet at the moment, thanks to these “wisdom” teeth. It hurt pretty badly on Tuesday and Wednesday in between all the pain meds. Today I haven’t taken anything and it’s really not bothering me that much, so I guess that means I haven’t failed the healing process. Yet. Plus I don’t have…

  • Rachel Weekend!

    I find it helps clear my mind a little if I write one of these journals before embarking on a quest to write a good composition paper. I’m going to need all the +1UP’s I can get while working on this one. It’s the first composition paper all year that I have zero motivation for, as it’s…

  • Rantage = k/Viewers

    That’s right, rantage has to be inversely related to the number of people who view it. As in, the more I rant, the more people flock in droves…away. Or rather, Michaela is just frazzled because of “life.” Have to find a new job and apply to college and both are really hard, especially when Giant and school…

  • I Kissed Rachel Today in 2003

    It was a year ago today! Only last year it was on a weekend, and we were camping with Rachel’s family and her church’s Pathfinder club (that’s like Boy Scouts). So many things have happened in our lives since then, but going through them has helped to make our relationship stronger. It has grown and developed so much…

  • And yeah…

    Traveled to Pittsburgh this past weekend with my mom, Mark and Rachel to visit my grandparents and Grove City College. It was great being with Rachel and seeing my grandparents again. I was all angsty though so that kind of stinks. I was getting upset at things that weren’t really big deals because of other frustrations that were…

  • Stalked by a Giant

    I called up Giant today at about 8:15 to get my work schedule. After waiting for some time and starting to fall asleep, I am informed that I’m working from 10:30 to 6:30. Not only is that in two hours, but it’s the entire available daylight portion of the day. I was planning on mowing a lawn…
