december's almost done.

i can't tell you the number of times this month i've been yelled at for not posting. sorry.

the doctor i'm working with works nextdoor to my highschool. it's awesome! after months of a 45 minute to hour long commute, the 4 minute drive is WONDERFUL! we start at 7 most days. if i leave by 7:04, i beat him there...

and he's awesome. he is fun and laid back and smart and so nice. and he grew up here too. and so did his wife. and he's related somehow to about every other patient or so. we've been working on drawing out the family tree... his wife has a HUGE extended family... he goes to one of the baptist churches in town, so even our circles of friends overlap some... it's fun fun fun. and he cracks me up... he's always telling funny stories about his kids... he has four of them between 3 and 10 yrs old... like the three year old squeezing his preschool teacher's "bunnie-wunnies"... or the ten year old asking if he had to have sex when he got married... it's a riot, i tell ya!

his nurse is fun too... and she thinks i'm funny and is constantly saying some variation of "you fit in so well here!" hopefully there's a job offer floating somewhere in there... we'll see... it's a family practice office, so i'm not sure they'd let me in... but one of the partners is internal medicine... so maybe. wouldn't that be something...
