A minor update re: major life changes…
February 1, 2008 · 1 Comment
I got hitched exactly one month ago. We are still talking about how much fun we had. Truly one of the best nights ever.
After that, the two of us went to Costa Rica for 7 days, which was amazing. We will be going back when the opportunity arises. Pictures can be found at my Picasa gallery.
After getting back to NYC, I went back to the lab to hammer out a few more things there. Much of my time has been spent studying for step 2 (medical boards) which I took today. Nothing like a 9 hour test on a computer with a shitty flickering monitor. You’d think they’d be able to adjust the hertz, but nope… a few ibuprofen/eyedrops/beers later and my head and eyes are still killing me.
So what next? Heading back to the hospital for February and likely continuing lab work in the evenings. Other than that, I’m going to try and enjoy my last few months in NYC… as much as I can’t wait to leave, there will be a lot I will miss.
Getting back to normalcy…

With sub-internship behind me and four quality months of labwork to look forward to, things are slowly getting back to normal. Christie and I put the finishing touches on the wedding registry tonight. It’s a bit extravagant and weird to be asking for all of this merchandise, but I guess it’s what all the kids do these days. Regardless, it is fun to pick out really nice kitchen stuff… The difference between nice cutlery and the Ikea shit I deal with now is immense. Went riding… put the knobby tires on the single speed and took it out on the trails that run around the edge of the Bronx. It feels almost rural, except when the trail spits you out along I95.
Bronx wilderness…
Interstate 95
I don’t know if I’ll be headed back home for thanksgiving. Flights are a lot of money right now and I think I’ll have plenty of traveling to do for residency interviews. If anybody joins me in the Bronx, I’ll guarantee turkey/mashed potatoes/stuffing for your company!
Golfing around the Crooked River…

View of the canyon from the course…
Luckily my eyes remained unscathed by both golf balls and shards of glass…

Home sweet home…

Home for a very brief stay. I was planning on getting some important reading done, but my days have been jam packed with enjoying the outdoors. It’s funny how living in the Bronx can make a run around highway 97 seem calm and enjoyable.
Glad to get back on the mountain bike. It’s my bike’s 10 year birthday, and it’s still a joy to ride. The riding I’ve been doing in NYC has definitely helped out with the mountain biking – I feel better than I have in years on the mtn bike.
Golf is on the agenda for today. Hopefully I don’t embarrass my Dad in front of his business buddy, but it’s inevitable. Hopefully the golf course is prepared to re-turf the course after I divot the living shit out of it.

Hiking Bear Mountain…
March 19, 2007 · Leave a Comment
I ventured 50 miles out of the city today to climb Bear Mountain with a friend. It wasn’t anything too strenuous… the summit is a tame 1300′ feet. It was fun to tumble through the snow on the way down.
Other than that, nothing much new. Starting radiology tomorrow.
