Well, the war on OCD suffered a bit of a setback yesterday. It seems the OCD called up traitorous forces in the forms of shedding kitties, and forced my own forces back a bit. I spent the good part of last night vacuuming the sofa and then reading up on portable steam cleaners for upholstery. I think I know where my tax check will be spent. Assuming it ever gets here, of course.
Nothing much going on down here. I work, go home, and that's about it. I'm seeing a new girl, who has been dubbed Dr. Geek by my resident social/love advisor. She (Dr. Geek) is indeed a medical intern, over at Memorial City Hermann. She's just doing general study now, and she'll do the specialized study starting next month. She's still not 100% sure what she wants to do. Possibly ER work, possibly something else.
Dating her is interesting. She's older than a lot of women I go out with (yay!), and she's got a fabulous knowledge of a variety of geeky things, such as the complete cast of Firefly and Quantum Leap. She's Irish, so I get to hear all sorts of fascinating things from her point of view. Cursing, love, cute little idioms she says, such as, 'Well just fock me from here to Galway, I thought you were getting the door, you amadan!'. I'm not sure what all that means, but it's cute when she says it.
Ok, that's about it, I reckon. Time to go back to work and earn my keep.
