I win again!

I came home today to find a message on my voicemail from Crackers Comedy Club telling me that I’ve won 12 free tickets to a show at either Crackers Downtown or Broad Ripple.  The caveat: they have to be used on a Wednesday, Thursday, or Sunday in the next 2 weeks.  So who wants to […]

The best laid plans of mice and men

For the past two weeks, I have been angling to get tickets to the Indy 500 from one of my attendings, who promised me 3 tickets when he got some better ones.  Unfortunately, he never got those better tickets, so I never got the 3 he offered.  It didn’t really matter, anyway, since Saturday night I […]

No whammies, no whammies, and stop!

I almost never win anything.  The last time I won anything substantive was back in 1984 or so, when I won a $100 gift certificate to Toys ‘R’ Us from a cereal box contest and bought a bike.  Since then I haven’t really been so lucky in raffles or contests.
Imagine my surprise when I came […]

Planning for the future

This Monday, my classmates and I finalized our schedule for our chief resident year, which will begin officially the last week in June.  It’s hard to believe that I only have 1 more year of the trial known as residency (assuming I don’t screw up royally), and that it has taken 5 years to reach […]

Autobots, transform and roll out!

Despite spending this weekend at work, I did get a chance to see the Transformers final trailer.  If there’s one movie I’m excited about this summer, it’s Transformers!  Despite being directed by Michael Bay, whose only directorial talent seems to lie in blowing stuff up, it looks like an exciting film featuring robots.  Giant… transforming… […]

What a weekend!

This weekend was interesting.  Of course, I was on call for most of it (Friday and Sunday), but it was interesting nonetheless.  After these weeks of alternating hot and cold weather, it was finally beautiful outside.  Obviously this bodes poorly for my nights on call, since good weather brings out the reckless and stupid, and […]

Do you like to “do it yourself?”

After days of stress and worrying about the bathtub faucet leak, I’ve finally fixed the problem. Of course, it required multiple trips to multiple stores and lots of phone calls. Sunday before the Spamalot show, Traci and I went to Menard’s to pick up some seals and springs for the shower cartridge. […]

It’s a busy life in Camelot

After a nice, relaxing vacation at home in Toledo where I ate well and played basketball with my dog Franklin, I spent a couple days hanging out with Eiran, his wife Amanda, and their fetus in Cleveland.  Oh yeah, and his dog Mitzie tried to violate me repeatedly.  I returned to Indy relatively refreshed.
Then I […]
