it happens every time

Last weekend, we were in D.C. for a friend's wedding. We had a great time! Friday night, we went straight from the airport to the rehearsal dinner at this Italian place in Bethesda. Saturday, we met up with a friend from medical school who I actually met down in Ecuador and explored the Mall area of D.C. We had dim sum, went to the Hirschhorn (or Hirschsprung's, for those of you who are medically-inclined) museum- the part of the Smithsonian that houses modern art, and sipped fresh lemonade in 90-degree weather.

Here's Judd and Sarah. Their wedding was at this beautiful fancy country club in Rockville, Maryland. I cried during the ceremony and during the matron of honor's toast. I hope I'm not a fountain of tears when I get married but somehow I think it's unavoidable.

Sunday, we joined everyone for brunch and then flew back to Chicago.

I'm glad to be back home... but suddenly, it's become very chilly here! Can we skip winter this year?

I'm on a very relaxed rotation right now called Development and Behavioral Pediatrics. I'm studying for Step 3 of the boards but having a very difficult time... I'm always sleepy! Maybe I have mono?
