60 days until my birthday.<\/strong> (check out www.jillcook.com<\/a> for daily updates :-))<\/p>\n

3 residency interview invitations:<\/strong> UCSF, Oakland Children’s (in the greater SanFran area), and Denver Children’s.  I’m trying to get one long SanFran trip scheduled so I can do 4 interviews there all in 1 week.  It’ll be an interesting week, being "on" all the time.. but much nicer than making 3 or 4 trips out there separately.<\/p>\n

I love my job.<\/strong>  Okay, it’s not technically my job yet, since really I’m still paying for the privilige of working crazy hours in the hospital… but I’m going to love my job.  And that’s nice to know.  I’m also going to complain about it a lot, because it seems that that’s what residents do and I will get sucked in just as easily as everyone else seems to be… BUT, knowing that, I will try to keep the complaining to a minimum and remember all the great things that make me love my job. Here’s a few from this week:
Little kid smiles
When babies just look at you, all nice and content
The suggestion, from a 10-year-old patient, that I could be "a princess" for Halloween, "or a DEAD princess!!!" with a white dress covered in blood and half of a tiara
Being called "doctor"<\/em><\/p>\n

Halloween<\/strong> – what to do for Halloween?  I want to have a little get together… a party… a soiree… an affair, a celebration, a fete, gala, occasion, function, bash – however you want to refer to it, I want to have people and food and decorations and maybe scary movies, or semi-scary movies anyway.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
