second day 08/09/2007
 

More rolling out of bed at 7am so that we could make it to class early.  Dustyn brought this giant retractable orange extension cord so we could sit in the middle of the room and power up our computer in the auditorium.

Classes were shorter than expected today, so I'm not feeling too stressed or overloaded with material yet.  My email is still busted though, despite another half hour on the phone with the helpdesk.  Someone else is definitely getting my emails, including some inappropriate test emails Dustyn sent me for kicks.

Among our basic science classes today was the one doctoring - where we have standardized patients, write about our visits with the local docs, and learn more about ourselves.  The professor was put a lot of emphasis on that last one...in her shpiel about how to maintain our own wellness, she had a list of the ten things to do.  Family Feud style, we found that her list included the requisites of nutrition, exercise, sleep, but also good sex and daily bowel movements.  No joke.

There was some severe weather alert today - I didn't really get it until I stood out in the sun waiting for the ATM machine for 5 minutes.  That's some serious heat.  Our house was 85 degrees even though the thermostat was set for 75 while we were away.  Not sure what to do about that since it didn't cool down for awhile.  We had six people over to study anatomy this evening and it was little warm for awhile. 

Hopefully tomorrow will be better, although I won't notice because we'll be in anatomy lab removing skin from a cadaver's back.  It's SUPER cold in there.
