Annapolis, Md



John and I messing around at the US Naval Academy. It was beautiful inside!

PJ took us everywhere around the capital. He knows so much about the historical end of Annapolis, it amazes me. Here is John in the Senate room. I guess it's the Senate room. (There was a House and Senate side)



Saturday morning, we went to the top of the capital building. The sun was starting to come out, but for the most part, the day was kind of dreary. The capital was build in 1772 by men who would build ships. If you looked inside at the structure of the building, it reminded you of a ship lying on its side. It was so cool how the did this stuff way back when. These are just engravings inside the building that I thought cool, dating back to the 1800's.





Besides tons of sights seeing, we mainly ate and drank our way through the weekend. I had so much fun!

YEH!

Super excited! Last night John's partner in crime called and announced that Lisa had the baby. She had a baby boy in which they named Austin. I am so excited to see both of them. I made a scrapbook that goes through month by month until age 1. I can't wait to give it to them.

Tomorrow we leave for Annapolis. Yes, I'm still excited but stressed out at the same time. I have a lot of studying to do and I feel that I can not get caught up. I called off work tonight just to finish everything before we leave tomorrow afternoon.

School has been going well. Today we switched clinical sights and I am finally somewhere new. My teacher seems really nice and lax compared to my previous instructor.

This makes me sick.. http://local.lancasteronline.com/4/201218
This man is still practicing. It's odd, because Thursday, my patient was in for a TKR gone wrong. I wonder now who did his surgery. His knee became totally infected that it actually started to eat way at the femor in his leg.

..... on a side note

I forgot to mention something. The other day I was driving to work and a car full of guys were a little behind me. On my entire trip to work, they kept pulling up in the other lane next to me and just looking over and smiling. All I could think of was when this happened to Melissa. She had a kid in the backseat that she could at least point to. I didn't have a kid, dog, ring, or anything to show them that I was taken. It just made me laugh because I don't know if this was honestly their best pick up mechanism or what. It is hard for me to believe that this would truly work though.

Snow!

I can not believe it is snowing outside again! 2 days ago, I felt like wearing my bathing suit, it was that hot. (ok, so not really.... it was only 74) Then today, we are expecting 4-8 inches of snow. There are already about 4 inches out there and it is still snowing like a blizzard! I am sick and tired of shoveling. Our sidewalks are so long, it is the worst part of it all. Last time I tried to make light of it by diving in the snow. I had fun and at least it made John and the neighbors laugh a little. Maybe we'll have a snow ball battle or something this time.
Today, I just chilled out and have been doing school work all day. John and I leave for Annapolis next Friday for the weekend. I'm very excited to just get away. I have been working so much and I need a vacation!

Hecticness? Is that a word?

Wow, it has been quite a month. We've done so much!

For Valentine's Day, John and I went ice skating at Clipper Stadium. It was so much fun. I, quite the pro, did not fall at all. John, on the other hand, did run in to some guy. It was the typical local ice rink. You found people like us who were there just for fun, then there were others who were pulling a Kristi Yamaguchi move. Oh well. My aunt and uncle and cousin ended up joining us there. Afterwards, we hung out at there place for a while. That was our romantic Valentines weekend.

About a week later, John and one of his business partners were traveling behind a tractor trailer when a chunk of ice flew off and hit John's windshield. Shattered it. Dented the car all along the passenger side. Thank goodness no one was hurt. By now, almost all the damage has been taken care of, or so I think.


This week, I am on spring break. I am working a lot but it still is nice just relaxing.
