Hopefully that doesn't mean that you've come to needing pampers yourself

I'm just trying to decide what degree of wackiness I should be while he's here!

Haha...sounds familiar. My 15 yr old wants to become an OMFS..already looking into colleges and shit for him. He even spoke to OMFS residents and attendings at my hospital to see if he could come in to "observe" procedures and whatnot. Hes already been exposed to some of it when he was doing his community service on unit. I thouht the sight of my suctioning the blood and shit from someones wired mouth would turn him off from it, but lookis like im going to be shelling out LOTS of money for med school!!

I could certainly be better. But that's the way it goes, sometimes.

The sky is looking awfully dark outside. I may have to cancel my walk/run I was planning on in a couple of hours.

At least I had a walk in the woods with the kids already today.

I agree with whoever said that the funk is probably because of coming back from a trip.
I always feel madly depressed after a long vacation. I don't get that "Ah, I had a long vacation. Now I'm refreshed, relaxed, and can go back to work". I'm refreshed while I'm on vacation and wish I could stay there - coming back to reality and work makes me grouchy, depressed and sometimes just pissed... I need at least a week to acclimatize back to the rat race.

Hey, all he has to look forward to is 4 years of college for the B.S. or B.A., then 4 years of dental school for the D.M.D. or D.D.S.(same thing just a turf war between which d-school confers the degree)and then depending on the type of OMFS residency either 4 more years if it's just an OMFS certificate program (less common nowadays especially in the Northeast) or the more common 6 year OMFS residency where he'd get an M.D. in addition to the OMFS certificate.

Then after all that schooling/training he'd spend his days doing what most OMFS's do, taking out teeth

On the flip side, a few years into practice he should be taking YOU on ski trips anyplace you want to go with that OMFS $$ he'll most likely be making

Just got in from a 2 mile-ish walk/jog.

I didn't jog more than about 1/3 of it total, but I can already see what they mean by "runner's high."
