Weekend
This past 4 day weekend was pretty great. Usually, I’m complaining to Robin about boredom on Sunday of a 2 day weekend, but somehow, I was able to amuse myself this time for a whole 4 days!
Thurs: Ran 3 miles outside. Hey, 3 miles is a lot for me.
Fri: Ran 2 miles and went on a Critical Mass bike ride. Before the bike, I fell off my bike and landed on an outstretched wrist. First sports injury I’ve ever had! It was kinda exciting at first, but then I started overreacting… called over a friend (future sports medicine doc) for an examination and contemplated going to the ER to get x-rays. In the end, I kept my wrist immobilized with my carpal tunnel brace, waited a few days, and then went to a clinic, where the doc said my wrist was fine. It was interesting being a patient again after working as a health care provider all year.
Sat: Nursed my wounds and played Final Fantasy. Went to a Wicked musical drawing for tickets…lost.
Sun: Went to another Wicked drawing. Won a pair of front row tickets! A few seconds later, Robin’s name was called also. We had both won tickets! Must have been our lucky day. Robin decided to give up his winning tickets to some other hopefuls. Wicked (what went on in Oz between the Evil Witch of the West and the Good Witch of the North before Dorothy arrived) was really entertaining; the music was….ok, nothing extraordinary. I’d say I enjoyed listening to the singers’ voices more so than to the music. I’ve never sat so close in any performance before…we were so close to the singers that we could see their spit flying out of their mouths.
This is probably going to be the last entry for awhile as I will start my Pediatrics rotation on Monday. Tata!
