Lunar cycles
Seems like that's how often I update this beast. Back in January I said to myself "Self, look at all these blogs out there. You too could write a blog and keep the 3 people who might be interested, updated on your life and your current interests ." It seemed like I wasted a lot of time online as it was, so I figured I'd leave a little something behind. Turns out I'm better at being a passive particpant in the interweb than an active one. Oh well.
For those who ever read this and are curious: I'm doing alright. Finished the second year of med school. Two years left and it's all clinical from here on out. I'll be excited as soon as I get these pesky boards out of the way. June 12th is my personal day of doom. Unfortunately, the brilliant administrators at my fine institution of higher learning have us spending the next several weeks in the hospital -- not that we need the time to study or anything.
Trying to nail down a date and locale for the wedding. Might be October 2007, might be April 2008. 95% certain of the locale. If you want to know more and you're reading this, holla at me.
Things I'm currently enjoying:
1) Books on Tape (the band, not the object)
2) Jamie Lidell's live show (combining his more recent funk musings with his earlier work as Supercollider, amazing performer, you can find some videos at YouTube)
3) The Mixing Bowl (bit torrent site for all things DJ mixes)
4) Big Love (only HBO could pull off a family drama involving polygamy)
5) Wax Poetics (my favorite music magazine out right now, I pull it out to read in the hospital during downtime and get reactions such as "Hip Hop, Funk, Soul and Jazz? You like that sort of thing?")
6) Williams-Sonoma cookbooks (my knowledge of culinary texts + Alex's culinary skill = tasty food for us)
7) I Am 8-Bit Art Show (and another gallery for you to peruse)
8) Apple's new Boot Camp (bye bye PCs, all about a triple boot - Windows, OS X, Linux - on a nice MacBook for me)
9) The Newsvine (it's like a combo of meta-news and blogging with the added benefit of having several news wire services, recommended if you like to comment and debate as you read your news)
10) Buying Disney Classics on DVD. Nothing like falling asleep while watching The Sword and the Stone. Merlin owns you.
