Oh my God....

Ok, I really can't justify how long it's been since my last post. Can we just forget about the last few months and the lack of posting? Actually, we can, since no one actually reads this blog. For some reason I feel obligated to write a REALLY LONG post to update EVERYTHING. But, hey, it's my blog and a quick I'm back and I intend to post from now on should be enough, right?

QUICK SUMMARY THEN!!

1) I'm sitting right now in Fort Myers Florida in a cheap hotel room at a surgical conference. What this means is: I have completed my very first oral talk at a national meeting. To that end, I have submitted two manuscripts to major journals...I will submit a third, fourth and fifth soon. I think this is solid progress. So research is going JUST FINE.

2) I have competed now in several ballroom dance competitions and really feel like I'm getting good at swing dancing, cha-cha and rumba. Moreover, I'm continuing salsa dancing. Also good. So far, this is working...

3) I just got back from a three week trip to INDIA. I know, I really missed out on an opportunity for blogging. I also got really good at photography, and would have been posting pictures from my D40...and my new iphone! Oh my god, so much has happened.

4) Current weight: 145 pounds! My god, I'm actually getting skinny!!! Although I think this may be due to a tapeworm or something from India. Eat up, little friend! Help me keep this weight off!

5) Cook off this Sunday.

6) What I need to do: New workout regimen.... Print Step 2 stuff and start studying.

All in all, things are going well. I'm just gonna pretend the last four months (Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, random events, India, Fort Myers, etc.) were insignificant and start truly updating NOW. I say that, we'll see what happens...

hey Soccer team!!! See, I mentioned you guys (Mica, Erica, Connie, Anne, Megan, Kirstie, blah blah blah).
