Had a wonderful afternoon/early evening. Actually, today was an excellent day for me. I started my first day on a rotation today. My drive to the site was enjoyable -- not what I was expecting. It only took me 30 minutes to get to my destination. I tried to park on a residential street but was called out by a protective resident. I had to then move my car a few houses down. I decided to try my luck to see if my idea would be accepted. But no luck. She turned me down, citing that her 2 university daughters would need the parking space in front of her house. Oh well... I tried. I admitted defeat after that and proceeded to park on Boundary. I haven't quite decided yet whether to try my luck again tomorrow. I'm leaning towards not, and just sucking it up, and taking the hike everyday. I figured the exercise would be good for me, and I don't need to start until 9:45-10ish.

It was a pretty lax day. Lots of talking about clinical pharmacy, and about leadership. Tonight I have to write about my vision for rm.

I left at 10 minutes to 3. Drove to RCH to pick up a laptop. I was tempted to stay there longer than I needed to because I found street parking that still had 4.5 hours left in the meter. What luck! I didn't have any problems finding the office or getting in. I was in and out in 10 minutes. Sweet. Drove home. Stopped at IGA to pick up bread, chicken, bananas and soup. I got home and made chicken curry. After dinner, I flicked the fireplace on, pulled out a throw, and curled up on the couch and read for a couple of hours. I finished Schumann Proof. What a way to spend the evening...

Now it's off to work. I'll tackle emails and write that paper, and then off to bed.

Today

My friend I is such a pal. She got her new iPad from my neighbor, and she proceeded to call me if I wanted to open the package with her at the same time. So we ooohhh'd and ahhhh'd about her shiny new toy, and got a chance to catch up with each other about work, life, and love. Life is made beautiful by friends.
