Double Aargh. Trying to get ready for going on vacation. I’m gonna be up for the next couple hours finishing a paper, then off to the clinic to see eight patients, then campaign phone calls for a prof running for academic office, then packing. Sleep has yet to be scheduled. I need a vacation from getting ready for vacation.

Which means there will be very little blogging for the next 2 weeks. Like that’s anything new at this point. Instead, you should all go to the ‘Go Spo’ (Golden Spoon) for ‘fro yo’ (frozen yogurt) while I’m gone. Locations available here. There aren’t many of them. We prefer the Long Beach location. They usually have 2-4 more flavors than some other stores. Try the cappucino if you get the chance.

Anyhow. Let me know if you want me to bring you a Boston magnet or a Harvard shirt.

The following is a brief pre-vacation IM between my Dad and me. You’ll get a kick out of it if you know my dad:

Dad: just in case you need to really relax on the flight out, i have two full drink coupon booklets that will be at your disposal
Dad:
MRI: ooh. they probably don’t have much that’s tolerable, but perhaps a glass of wine. can’t imagine airline cocktails are much good.
Dad: they’re the little bottles….they all have alcohol and work the same….though taste may vary granted
Dad: 24 coupons total — 3 coupons for beer/wine — 4 coupons for mixed drink

Well folks, that’s a lot of cocktails, especially for an 8am flight, but if Dad’s buying…

Lastly, this one is courtesy of the Captain (see link at right) and just for fun…not for those who become squeamish at the sight of smoked pork…
