So I’m still finding my stride, to include prioritizing my limited computer time. I’m keeping up with reading all the blogs I read, and not so much updating my own.

We had a good visit the past several days with Joel’s Mom and sisters. My Mom is in Wisconsin with my Dad at a major air show, where I’m told a jet pack was revealed, which I must hear about. I’ve always wanted a jet pack.

My Mom will be relieved to know that this afternoon I tended to that pesky matter of immunizations before classes start. I have misplaced my record, so titers are required. But two items are checked off, and by next week I’ll have the rest. In a related story, and this is for Rachel: my shoulder hurts.

Tonight we went with many of my classmates to the Astros game against the Cincinnati Reds, also known as Zoe’s first official pro baseball game. Minute Maid Park is pretty impressive. A good time was had by all. Zoe was an absolute angel. I had every expectation of needing to leave before the third inning, but she sat in my lap calmly and happily the majority of the evening. She cheered appropriately and entertained herself with her recently acquired friends. I can already tell that there are some real gems in my class. We’re in the right place.

Tomorrow is our last anatomy lab during the program, and we’re doing four labs in one. I hear sleep calling my name more loudly now that I think about the stamina I’ll need for that…
