Where is everyone?
Why am I starting two morning threads in a row? Am I the only working stiff around this week?
Today is the first day of my resident clinic. I have four brand-spanking-new interns who I am introducing to clinical medicine this afternoon. I'm excited and apprehensive at the same time.

I'm just watching TV for a few minutes before I head into work. I'm so glad we have tomorrow off. I woke up at 1 this morning and haven't been back to sleep yet. Blech.

i'm excited to have tomorrow off. Soon I'll have all Wednesdays off, until school starts and then I'll be teaching at night.
Kmm - just have some fireworks at your house! If you're allowed to, that is. We always got the little tank tings and had tank wars in our driveway.
Found out last night that we got the deposit back from our reception hall. Very nice surprise considering I thought it was the kind of deposit that just went towards the total bill.
Sesh, I hope you get power back soon.
My plan today is to sit by the pool and read a book and swim. Basically I just want to relax until H gets home @ 5:30 from work and we run some errands and go to a friend's get together.
Froggie, I like the new sig pic. Very cute.
Hockey, how did things go with your dad yesterday?
Not much going on here. Taking BB to my folks' today to do some swimming.

One year a bunch of our friends went to a city's fireworks near us. We decided to go watch them from this reservoir area, because it was the highest area in the city. It also had swarms of mosquitoes. I had never seen so many mosquitoes in my life before. We all got so many bites, even though we all had a ton of raid on. On tv is much better!

midge they ended up doing pelvis xrays to see if he had a fracture there. We won't know the results until today.
My plans for tomorrow fell through, so I'm hanging out with my friend and my sister. I have no idea what we're going to do, but it's better than being home alone all day.

[QUOTE]Morning. I'm so glad we have off tomorrow. I'm going to my mom's pool with my aunt and cousin. H is going to see the Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter movie. I managed to convince him to go out tomorrow night for fireworks since we couldn't do anything very festive with the storm/no power over the weekend. Kmm - have you made AB's pulled pork before? I've had it on my list to try forever. I'm kind of jealous your fireworks are tonight. Ours start at 9:15 tomorrow, go on until 10 and then its 45 minutes to get back home with the traffic. I'm going to be tired Thursday thats for sure.

</div><div>This is my first time making the pulled pork. I don't have a smoker so I've gone through all the recipe reviews to see how people do it without one. I'm going to use my electric roaster and part way through I'll wrap it in foil and make sure to seal the juices in. I will try to remember to come back over the next couple of days with a reveiw for you. All of the ones on food network (or at least the overwhelming majority) rave about it.

[QUOTE]I'm pretty sure Jax always does fireworks on the 4th. One thing I love about where we live is that we can go out on the dock and see them all around town. Kmm - just have some fireworks at your house! If you're allowed to, that is. We always got the little tank tings and had tank wars in our driveway.

</div><div>This is Michigan's first year where aerial fireworks are legal to purchase and use privately. We have a burn ban because we have had such a severe shortage of rain. DS is bummed as he had quite the grandiose ideas for some aerials this year. I will save the tank war idea though. I could see DS and I going for a tank war - just will have to be next year.

Good morning all! Another day in paradise.

[QUOTE]Bay, that stinks. What did you have planned? July, ugh. I would be pissed. You're almost there.
Posted by EaglesBride2012[/QUOTE]
I was super pissed. I can see burning one because you don't know how your iron is going to react to the fabric. We had bought a couple extras in the event of something like that, but 3! I mean come on, turn down your iron heat!<div>
</div><div>It all works out in the end because we are doing a kings table for the WP and we'll just use plain linens since it is a long rectangular table instead of a round, but still.</div>
Ugh, yes, I hate it when people do that during their cocktail hour. My BFF's brother's wedding was last week, and I was babysitting her little girls (who were flower girls, I took them away after the wedding). It was about 95 degrees outside, and the wedding and cocktail hour were both outdoors. There were chairs for the wedding, but not for the cocktail hour. Guests were mingling on the lawn, pounding drinks, and even the appetizers looked melted and gross. It was pretty awful.
