Getting Back To Basics

So here’s the thing. I like writing posts where I know there might be some reaction. I like checking the comments to see who’s upset or what agreement, if any, there is amongst my few readers. It’s fun.

The last post was for me, but also for that simplistic pleasure. That’s part of the reason the heat gets going as a post continues– to get a rise out of you. Unfortunately I may have caused some of my med school buds to feel I don’t support starting a family while in school. Simply put – I completely support anyone who can juggle this craziness with kids. I don’t have any qualms about women having children during residency or afterwards either. My beef was not with med students taking time to have children or their need to have accomodations afterwards. My beef was with the student in question only - because she sued. What does that say about her? That was my point.

So, that’s that. If you’re still upset or irked then there’s nothing I can do. It’s my blog and I write what I want.

Anyways, the Tassimo poll has completed and basically more people have no idea what Tassimo coffee is than those who either love it or hate it (which tied BTW). No idea where to go with this information, but at least I know that I'm not the only one who loves it...

…and I’m looking at my veins as I type this dreaming about sticking large bore IV’s in those juicy ass rivers of blood. Part of wanting to be an Anesthesiologist I guess. 2 days from my first interview and I'm wondering why all of this is necessary. $4,000 in travel expense thus far without hotels for most trips - yet. Damn.

Poll

Noel thought it might be a good idea to see where people stand on the Tassimo coffee debate. Since there were only his response and mine I'm not sure how well this will go, but let's try out this new Blogger feature!

The poll is a little down on the sidebar, below the disclaimer. You can vote as often as you want.

Frenchy

I love coffee. Fortunately my wife decided that she would get me a Tassimo coffee maker for Christmas last year and I have loved it ever since. Yesterday she called me from the grocery store to alert me to a fantastic find – French Vanilla coffee.

Our apartment smells great after brewing a T-disc and it tastes grand! No need for creamer at all. Just a little sugar and you're solid.

If you have the chance to procure one, I highly advise you getting a Tassimo coffee machine. They are great and have a lot of good options – kinda pricey, but well worth it.

Tieless

In an attempt to make me feel fantastic despite having to dress up for the first time in several months I ditched the tie. Open shirt collar, white undershirt, dress slacks, nice shoes and matching belt, white coat – no tie.

For whatever reason this made me feel fantastic this morning. As did the Tassimo coffee that I’d been missing since I was away for a month.

Now, time to fake interest, yet again, in a rotation with little to offer.
