well, we aren't getting the snow that a lot of the rest of you are. that would probably make the difference. i am precepting students tomorrow, so my presence is not mandatory to staff the hospital.

i suppose i am using a made up word, rooted in preceptor:

pre·cep·tor
   /prɪˈsɛptər, ˈprisɛp-/ Show Spelled[pri-sep-ter, pree-sep-] Show IPA
–noun
1.
an instructor; teacher; tutor.
2.
the head of a school.
3.
the head of a preceptory.


i think it is painful for the students. but when i have three of them, i think their pain is negligible compared to my pain.

nah, i am a respiratory therapist. one day a week i have students that i work with.

i have a similar problem when it comes to listing surgeries. not that i am an over-achiever, but i've been in a few motor vehicle accidents and had cancer when i was a teen-ager.

Stijn!!

Since 1890 there have only been three snow days with more than 10 inches in OKC. Today was one, December 24th 2009 was the second. You have to go back to before statehood for the other time. I don't want to ever see this much snow again.

I hated it but did it in order to get out and home. Was split from 1" up to about 3" above the belly button. Deep breathing was not high on the list of fun things to do.
