Bruised and Beaten

Aug 08, 2005 18:43

So, today, the first day of RD training, was one of the toughest days I have ever been through. Not because of the new job and responsibilities (we haven’t gotten to that yet). Oh no. I wish it had been that. Instead, someone decided it would be fun to have some physical activity the first day of training and suggested the Houghton Ropes Course ( Read more... )

It's pretty awesome that you tried everything though. I think I might have said, "um, no, sorry, but if I give in to your desire to make me climb up 40 feet I will do so only to look down upon you and throw up." I'm not crazy about heights like that. Nuts to the jerky guides.

Congrats again on your engagement...

But don't you want to keep your name? I mean the first one? It will be confusing to have you both be named Brian! Just sayin.

Hmm....I will have to think about that! :)

I don't see it as a problem to take my entire name. More of an appropriate homage.

I'd encourage changing of the middle name as well, because... Brian Christine Pinto....meh.

Besides, inspired by my hero Orin Scrivello, DDS from 'Little Shop of Horrors', I've decided that once I've gotten my degree I shall simply be known as 'Doctor'. As in 'Yes, Doctor'.

You should too. Lord knows you've paid your dues.

Hmm. I see exactly what you mean about "Christine." It's just not gonna work; it's got to go too. Well, you know what they say--never do a thing just two thirds of the way.

I also have entertained day dreams of being called "Doctor" by a lisping, simpering bleach-blond assistant. Sometimes I think it's the only thing that keeps me going. You've got to have some kind of carrot at the finish line during comps!

She does need the lisp, though, so you have the proper, "Yes, Doctah!" and "Sorry, Doctah!"

I will have "Dentist" in my head for the rest of the day. Ahem--for the rest of the day, Doctah.

Good point. This will make it even harder for me to be confused with Noah 'The Doctor' Gage, named for his apparent ability to 'operate'.
