I believe the Rolling Stones have a song to this effect.
07.12.09 | Permalink | 4 CommentsYesterday Zoe woke up around 9:00 AM. We played, cooked, played some more, swam, played, bathed, and played. At one point in the mid-afternoon I thought I might die from exhaustion and took a 20 minute break on the couch in a twilightish stupor, never falling asleep, but it was enough that when she asked [...]

Sleep-deprived ramblings about sleep
07.12.09 | Permalink | 2 CommentsI have come to the conclusion that Zoe just does not require the same amount of sleep as most other kids. Here’s what happened last night. After a long, no-nap day, she went to sleep at 9:30 PM – very, very early by our standards. She woke up at 5 AM, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. What [...]

Don’t post angry.
What a day. Let me start by saying that I know most of the world has it worse, and I realize that, and I’m a giant whiner. Noted. I’m going to bitch and moan and then I’ll be done with it and study for my last remaining test. One which will require a miracle to [...]

Kids
So I misspoke. There are two other Moms in my class, for a total of four of us. How we’ve gone nearly the whole semester and not found each other is kind of shocking, but I guess we don’t have much time for socializing. Per Joel’s report, Zoe said the alphabet today, and she woke [...]

Tutoring
Last week I had a much-needed diversion from the sciences when I went to an ultrasound workshop. We practiced on each other and became familiar with ultrasound basics. It was pretty exciting, and it reinforced the importance of the anatomy we’re learning. Good show, Family Medicine Student Association. What a great idea. I finally got [...]

Frustration station
I’m taking a short break from… outline synthesis, we’ll call it… This is my five minutes to whine publically. I’m tired, I’m famished, and I’m totally frustrated. How can I spend so much time and have so little to show for it, both in understanding and in actual physical product? Props to effective teachers. Props [...]

Alive and studying
10.02.08 | Permalink | 4 CommentsI apologize for my twelve-day absence. On the request of a couple of readers, I will add Blogging Blake to my list of Blakes when the multiplicity mission is accomplished. In the mean time, one can probably find the original Blake in one of two places: the lecture hall or an LRC study room. Zoe’s [...]

Homeward Bound
09.20.08 | Permalink | 9 CommentsA few weeks ago, Chief and Sarge were placed into a new home. This decision was made after much consideration, mostly painful. On our list of pros and cons, the only pros were that 1. I loved them, and 2. They acted as good Hoovers when Zoe dropped food. As heavily as those weighed, the [...]

House to myself today
With Joel at DjangoCon (read: Geek Convention) in California this weekend (I’m insanely jealous; mandatory attendance to anatomy lab won out though), and Gigi and Zoe on a grocery adventure, I have a few hours alllll to myself today. I spent some time making brownies, reading developmental anatomy by the pool, taking pictures of the [...]

Continued
I did return to the Metro office, and I did obtain my student discounted Q Card. Now I ride the bus for a mere half dollar per ride, and for every 50 rides, I get five rides free. Huzzah. I rode the rail to and from downtown before and after getting my card. Instead of [...]
