New Office, Same Blog

So this new version of Microsoft Office is pretty swanky. It's got a lot of nice features, and for the first time it seems that Microsoft is actually caring about making their products look good as well. Macs always look really nice and sleek, but they are outrageously expensive. The new Word has a feature for publishing directly to your blog, and since I'm always trying to update more frequently, maybe this will give me the boost I need.

School: We're covering the physiology of the Kidney this week, and had the physiology of the Respiratory system last week. Could they have crammed two more dense/difficult topics into one test? Probably so. And it will probably happen next semester during the dreaded 2^nd year that is famous infamous for being the toughest course load during all of medical school. I'm staying home today from school to hang out with Jinx and get caught up on how the complicated Kidney does its magical job of filtering everything in the body.

Life: Heather keeps me going, as always. She is really busy with school and is always going somewhere and doing something to help out. She has a magical maternal instinct with Jinx it seems, in that she can almost always tell what it is that Jinx is thinking or needing. I try to interpret, but it usually just ends up with poop on the floor (Jinx's….not mine). Mom is still having a hard time finding a job, but we all have confidence in her. She's a great people-person and will undoubtedly land a job after a few interviews. It's kind of scary thinking about how competitive the job market is—many people I know are having a hard time finding a decent job.
