Football.

And so it begins. The NFL Sunday opener was today. The real opener was this past Thursday, but I don't want to talk about that.

It is finally starting to feel like Fall. Football on Sundays, the air is dryer, and I have my first seasonal cold. So long summer 2011, you were nice while you lasted. Thats okay though, I love fall. And it would be my favorite season if it weren't for the fact that it heralds the coming of winter. I need to live where it is always warm. Florida? Georgia? Surely not Arkansas.

Anyway. Outpatient Pediatrics goes well, and it is a fine lead in to MNPS (Maternal-Neonatal-Pediatric Service) which is next month. 6AM start times are going to be a real bummer, but I guess that's just the way it goes. It might even be nice, because as soon as this round of MNPS is done I will be DONE with Obstetrics for the rest of my life. As a doctor at least, as a husband I suppose I will get some more exposure when Mandi and I decide to have kids. Should be fairly different.

After that its only two units of FMS and I am outta here. At least in terms of hard duty. June can't come soon enough. I have had enough Peoria. Enough residency I am ready to be DONE.

In other news, I will be headed to Monticello this week for the Kirby Hospital VIP Grand Opening event. I am not entirely sure what it is going to be like. I know I had to get a blazer and a new pair of shoes. But I can't imagine it would be anything other than fun. More on that once its over.

Go Bears!
