Hello 2009!!
I did something really exciting for New Year's Eve. I slept all night!
I know that such things as the New Year are arbitrary marks on the calendar, but they're good times for thinking about what has been and will be nonetheless. I've really enjoyed living in Chattanooga for the last 5 1/2 years. I'm also looking forward to moving on to what comes next in life. Hopefully nothing like Ike comes after us in Houston while I'm there.
The first 6 months of my chief resident year have flown by. I'll spend the next 3 months on the resident run service. It is the service on which residents have the most autonomy during residency. I feel ready for it. It is generally a fairly busy service, so I'm sure that I'll be ready for something different by the end of March. Tuesday's clinic apparently has 60 patients scheduled. It will be busy even if we have the normal number of cancellations/no-shows.
Hope that you have a blessed New Year.

Shame on you, young man! I may be ancient but I at least cracked an eyelid and watched the numbers roll over to 12:00. :-)
hans, i think we have the same genes. i did the same thing for the past two years due to jet lag last year in beijing this year in san fran. it was very fun both times.
Hi there, my name is Nic Miller, I'm from Holmes co, Ohio. I stumbled across your website after visiting Matt and Olivia Wenger's blog, which led to Darren's blog, which led to Merle's blog (who I perceived to be your parents?) If you would ask Merle if he remembers the brash kid that made him endure a thousand questions ranging from religion to troubled romance while sitting in a hot, crowded coffee bar one evening in Berlin after a youth conference, and he may tell you what car he was driving. A brand new black Mustang, as I recall, with a racing stripe down the middle. Hilarious.
Anyway, I'm a premed student, which is how I know Olivia Wenger (your cousin, right?). She let me into the NICU during her chief year. I'm extremely excited to learn about you, because I'm particularly interested in surgery, and you're the first surgical resident I've found that's of mennonite descent.
Thanks for writing. I'm looking forward to getting encouragement from your blog. In the meantime, I might be updating my own occasionally.
Take care,
Nic Miller
