Back to work...

It has been about 3 weeks since my previous post.  So much has passed since then-- my time on the road for week, my sister-in-law's wedding in Lake Placid, and our wonderful trip to Iceland (more to follow, I promise).  Having just returned from a few days back home for the holidays it is quite unsettling to know that good old fashion honest work starts up again tomorrow.  I have really enjoyed the travel, time on the road, meeting new people that do the same things that I do differently.  I have also let some of the defense mechanisms that get me through residency lie dormant, and I am loathe to reactivate them.  Oh well, onward we go!
