    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: Thursday Thread : Haha I understand that. FI was at Ft. Sam Houston last year and I went down for 2 weeks while he was in the hospital. His dad and sister only stayed a couple days because they couldn't miss work and school. FMIL was too scared (and too slow) when she drove in the city so we were mostly on base

    This will be my first trip to Ft. Sam Houston. We usually are on the Air Force bases but our stuff got move to Ft. Sam because they are revamping Brooks-City Base.

    Yeah there was a lot of construction when I was there. What are you doing there? Do you work for Dept. of Defense or something like that?<div>I was really impressed with the BAMC facility and the center for the intrepid. My cousin spent 2 years there and he showed me around the center for the intrepid and showed me his different prosthetics. Very cool technology </div>

    I have only been to BAMC once for a presentation. I work in military research. We primarily look at trauma, sespis, and inflammation, with a focus on aeromedical evacuation. We have an Air Force grant for several projects that we were utilizing space and their chamber on Brooks-City base. Most research will be transfered out to Dayton in the next year or so.

    [QUOTE]I found out yesterday I have to go on a business trip to Texas next Monday thru Wednesday. I hate our San Antonio trips. On top of that FI is OOT this week for work and gets in late Saturday so we only have a day and half together people I have to leave.

    At least it is warm here in Texas. We are highs of 80s today and tomorrow. Monday starts the week at 70 degrees.

    Currently it is beautiful in Cincy. Unseasonably warm around 60 degrees. But I can work with 70 degrees. I'm also looking forward to good Tex-Mex food and margaritas!

  • Oh, boy do I have a few of them today:

    - I've been trying to type this out for the last 4 hours!!!

    - Stupid jerk co-worker keeps on changing dates and pushing jobs up and crap without telling me and only giving me a day or two leadtime for the complete job

    - I was on hold for 45 minutes with my mortgage company today to try to talk to them about the Attorney General's settlement. I ended up hanging up without even speaking with a person on the phone.

    - I called my mortgage company again and spoke with someone only for him to tell me that I didn't qualify. BULL$HIT I don't!!!! So, I got put on hold for another 10 minutes when I asked to speak to someone else but had to hang up because I'm still at work

    I think that's it (for now anyway).

    Do you look at trauma overall or any specialized trauma?  I have a DoD grant for TBIs.

  • Sounds like a lot of us have BM drama.  One of my BM's always goes MIA.  I could see her 4 times in 2 weeks then not even talk to her for 6 months because she doesn't return calls.  I think the last time I actually talked to her was about 3 months ago.  My cousin (MOH) e-mailed all of the girls about bachelorette ideas and this girl never e-mailed back.  She also hasn't responded to the shower invitation (my mom and MOH are throwing it so it's not even like she has a responsibility for it).  I sent her a text last week and again yesterday and still no response.  I told her I wanted to know if a limo would be easiest to get to the venue so that her and her bf don't have 2 separate cars and that I want to book it by the end of the week if that's what we are going to do.  I doubt I'll hear from her.  Just so aggrivating.  I almost debated having her in my bridal party because she's difficult to get a hold of, but when she does come around she's one of my closest friends. 
  • @Harper that's cool!

    @MMRoberts A guy injured with FI had a serious TBI and it's amazing to see how much he has recovered
  • We have several specialized trauma procedures. We actually do have a TBI, hemorrhagic shock, burn, and complex wound models. We have also started doing age blood study. I love knowing what I am doing is benefiting our military.

  • I feel like I'm over the wedding planning - someone finish it for me and I'll just show up with the dress and someone hand me some cake

    [QUOTE]Feel better Zims! It's officially March and only 1 of 4 bridesmaids have even ordered their dress.  We are all grown adults and they know deadlines, so I'm not reminding anyone.  No dress, just be a guest. Simple.  End of vent.

    I'm sorry. I actually got rid of one of my bridesmaids because of this. Well things with us were rocky and this was the last draw.
