After trying (unsuccessfully) to go "light" yesterday at the Rathskeller by having the tuna, my gastronomic excesses of this week have concluded with Chinese dim sum at Shen Yang, formerly known as Yummy. I met up with 4 of my friends there today for a pork, shrimp, and grease-laden lunch - all of it kosher, […]

After tonight, I’m assured of a place in hell based on the number of deadly sins I’ve committed today. Most of them seem to revolve around an absolutely sinful meal I had at St. Elmo - the famous shrimp cocktail, the navy bean soup, the Caesar salad (and yes, I did order the anchovies), the […]
I’m stuffed! Today I had yet another drug rep-sponsored dinner at Shula’s, my favorite steak place in all of Indy. Few things are as pleasurable as one of their filets, and it’s even better when it’s free, served with free creamed spinach, free potatoes, free gigantic chocolate cake, and free merlot.

Just when I think I’m going to be able to go somewhere I’ve never gone before, a war starts to break out. Eiran and I had talked about going to Israel in November, when he and his wife are planning to visit his family over there. I was planning on taking one of my week-long […]
Even though today I was supposed to get together with my fellow residents for a third attempt at creating a rotation schedule for the year, I needed to get out of Indy. Last night on call I had a dream that I completely lost it and was yelling at everyone, attendings included, and I knew […]
I really have to get a vacation from work. Being stuck in the hospital for 80+ hours a week, as I was over the past month, has completely overwhelmed my personality and interests. On Saturday I met someone for coffee who had a lot of interesting experiences in her life, and in the conversation I […]
