Jordie --

I haven't been as good about keeping in touch as I might have been. DuibuqiWe've settled back into something close to our usual routine by now. It's strange; I expected to miss Osiris, but I didn't expect Kaylee to miss it even more than I do. Living on board ship again is taking some reacclimating

simon tam. as i live and breathe.

figured you've been busy. am eminently unconcerned. you should also be eminently unconcerned.

on my way to the clinic. working part time in fremont at clinic you won't know but would horrify our mutual acquaintances/colleagues. in process of switching my license over. quack i'm seeing says giving life meaning is good for me right now. i just like making sure little kids are able to make the choice to have terrible posture that makes them look like the depraved leftist hoodlums in training that they are. more later when i'm not running late.

reacclimating? do tell.

Reacclimating: it's the close quarters, mostly. The same walls and the same few faces, all the time, and one can't exactly step out for a walk and a change of scenery. It takes some getting used to after six months planetside, even when it's what we were used to for years.

Horrify for good reasons, or for bad ones? Or both?

Now that I have time to use proper capitalization...

It sounds like you need a vacation.

Horrify for bad reasons. The inequities in the health care system that you see are certainly worse; until I started, the waiting list for orthopedists within our administrative division averaged seven months. I've brought it down to five, and I'm tempted to go full time. You do realize that most of us aren't in it solely for the high from helping our fellow humans. The facilities also leave a little to be desired, especially when I think about Central-General on Londinium

Has your aunt actually managed to make you eat? I think I'm impressed.

We just recently had a few days' worth of shore leave on a little moon called Praxed. I suppose that could count as a vacation. We bought souvenirs, which I believe counts toward qualifying.

Kaylee sends regards, by the way.
