It's started

I have several friends who are trying to set me up with single guys that they know. I knew eventually i would have to give in to this blind double date thing. Ugh how painful. I would do better if they didn't tell me about it and i just show up and be myself! Now i am all nervous and questioning what i will say! How dumb is that! When am i at a loss for words??? Anyway- this weekend i am suppose to meet a ortho doc in the city and next weekend a rep from my area. Although the latter guy's last name is Grundy. Just don't see it happening! Dr. Grundy?!??? Grundy undy's (i know that is not how you spell it but undies looks like un-dies to me and it messes up my humor) Hope all is well with my readers (all two of ya)!!!

Dinner is served!

I am so proud of myself! I have been preparing and eating my dinners this week. I am even cleaning up after myself. I know this sounds stupid...but i eat out a lot and am very lazy. When my schedule is hectic, i will leave dishes for two weeks! They aren't terribly dirty and i don't even realize that much time has passed. When i start to wash, I will remember what was going on when i cooked last and get disgusted with myself! Oh well, nobody is perfect. I keep saying "i need a wife" !!
I have been out cleaning the yard too! Social life is on hold. CHores first!

Friday Night

Here it is.... Friday night! And although i had several offers of events to attend tonight, i chose to stay home. I took a bubble bath, relaxed and will be heading to bed early for some much deserved sleep.
I received my final numbers for march and i made my quota for the year!!! Yeah! Thank god really.... if i didn't ... my salary would have been reduced- significantly! Who wants that??!! I had a crazy week with 8 surgeries! a couple small ones but 8 is a lot for me! Previously i was averaging 12 a month! so - if i keep this up it will mean a banner year!
I also got my taxes done on time this year! No extension! How exciting! And i will get some $ back too!!!!! THat is the best feeling! I know it is better to owe and not give uncle sam an interest free loan ... but can't beat the feeling of getting $ back! It's like winning on ebay!!!
Seems i have developed adult acne or an allergic reaction to something. My face has totally broken out and is all blotchy. Also- i can't find a anti-perspirant that works for me! Odd problems to have! Wonder if it is stress related. Or thyroid? Hmm.

Gotta Be Somebody......

I had a busy week! I celebrated my one year anniversary with Great Lakes Orthopedics this week! April 1st! Sure doesn't feel like a year! I guess that is good! I had the biggest surgery of my life this week...it took me 5 hours! I was somewhat discouraged by how long it took ( i didn't transplant a heart or fix a brain tumor) but i did reconstruct a foot! Saving lives ... one foot at a time! Hope this guy heals well! I also completed and mailed my boards binder and should hear in two weeks whether or not the cases were accepted. Then i can start studying for the actual exam in June!
I was just to our big Midwest podiatry conference to mingle and network. I didn't actually sign up to attend. I had a great dinner (fondue) last night, partied til 4 am, slept in the awesome Swissotel and spent 5 hours this morning with the exhibitors. Met some really nice guys last night who were questioning why i am still single. I thought that was most amusing. And one single 24 year old who wanted to marry me (i think he was just drunk, but good looking) and another married dude who told me he wished he wasn't. Why do they tell me that stuff??? What am i going to do with that knowledge?
