Apparently weebly is a terrible (or very good, depending on how you look at is) procrastination tool, because in my blogging hiatus I've done progressively better in school.  Or I could just be getting better at studying medicine.

In my free time, I've been playing Halo and attempting to get a positive K/D ratio (the instances are few and far between.)  A few of my roommate's friends were here this weekend, which set off a string of disaster.  First of all, it thundered and poured all Saturday while a good portion of our class was trying to rock out at Jazzfest.  We elected to watch the NFL draft over 20 lbs. of crawfish at Aaron's, only when we went to leave, my car wouldn't start.  I probably should have done something when the "Battery Voltage Low" indicator came on two weeks ago, but I was busy trying to get a solid grasp on Respiratory physiology and the GI tract.  No worries, Dustyn's beat-up minivan was still available to drive home, rest up, then back to Aaron's to pre-party for the night out.

Back at Aaron's, after several rounds of beirut, we're walking out to the car...what car?  I always thought that part of town was a little sketch, but not that much.  Out of beer, we sat around and waited for the cops before heading down to Ms Mae's, the neighborhood open-during-Katrina one-dollar-drinks watering hole and then Harrah's for the breakfast buffet.

Aaron was kind enough to lend us his SUV the following day, which was definitely needed so that we could drive across town Sunday evening to the site of the accident Dustyn's car had been in.  Apparently the kid who hot-wired it crashed into the back of a parked car, sending it across an intersection (and then some).  Fortunately, most of the stuff in the car was still there, other then some workout stuff and sadly, the cash box for our med school academic banquet this Friday.  The kid was caught, and sulking in the back of the squad car until we arrived .

Yesterday, we had some time to drop my car off at the dealership in between classes, and then picked it up after a PBL session on diabetes.  And then I went home and washed and waxed it.  It actually looks terrible, because I was doing it until late, and couldn't see where the wax wasn't buffed off.  Oops.
