I haven't heard from any of my readers for a while. Do you still read my blog?

I update on Facebook every day, if you want to add me there instead. I have been having too many adventures. Go to my Facebook page for daily updates.

This "work" trip still feels like a vacation! Just back from downtown Baltimore! We ate a big crab dinner near the lovely, breezy harbor, with military boats, dragon boats, the Baltimore World Trade Center, the stylish Aquarium, and other architecture. Like San Diego. However, once we drove a few blocks away, we stumbled onto a strip club/porn part ( Read more... )

Exhausted. Back from another 7 hr training day. My coworkers are all highly motivated and like to laugh and drink alcohol! About to do a group study for a few hours before we go out for seafood. Today we inflated balloons and drew human faces and electrode positions on them! I made my face look like a cross between Zorro (mustache) and Bruce Willis ( Read more... )

Exhausted after 7 hrs training today. We must memorize much spinal anatomy, plus the nervous plexuses, for tomorrow. I really enjoy dealing with the chiropractors in my class, who have big advantages in nervous system knowledge. Several are ex-military: Navy and Army. One chiro guy has both a sports medicine and physical therapy background. Also ( Read more... )

I'm the most inexperienced person in my class. We all have a lovely hotel room with kitchen. My Taiwanese coworker was really sweet and friendly ( Read more... )

In Baltimore now for 2 weeks training. First flew to New York. On flight from NY to Baltimore, I sat next to 2 models going to a German catalog photo shoot. The model next to me said her life was not like that shown on Tyra Banks's show. It also was the smallest, most cramped plane we all had ever taken---maybe 8 rows of seats. "It isn't like on TV ( Read more... )

Visited Harvard University today w/ people from Poland, Brazil, & England. Very funny tour guides! Dinner w/ guys from Oxford and Germany. Tomorrow, taking tour of MIT and flying to Baltimore for 2 weeks for training. The other night, dinner with girl from Vancouver.

Saw street performers. Had 3-hour meeting in Brookline with my new boss. She gave me tons of journal articles and ( Read more... )

Finally am in Boston! Spent all night moving. No sleep. High stress. My SF flight was delayed 4 hours. My seatmate: a New Zealand principal who's going to a Harvard education mtg. At the Boston Hostel now. Many cool international students. My roommate: a NYer who just finished a 20-nation trip around the world, in 90 days! I love meeting all the ( Read more... )
