There are no guarantees in life
Not for the present,
Nor for the future.
All I know is
That I'm here;
Don't know for how long.
I love the way
You live so intensely
Enjoy every minute of life
With space to swing
Your arms around
Laughing loudly.
-Unlike Me, By Kate Havenik
Important note: OM, Aubri, and Circeo will be in San Angelo at the end of May. Circeo flies down on May 25th. OM and Aubri will join via car May 28th. All three go back to OKC on June 1st. If you want to see us, let us know - we want to see you!
Life has been pretty busy recently. Things seem to get away from me. Right now, we're close enough to the end of the semester, that panic has ensued. Two papers due next week, plus my survey and IRB application for my thesis. Go ahead, ask me how much I've worked on them.
I did pretty well on my midterms, although Cancer still hasn't been graded and returned. We actually took another Metabolism test last week, and I made another 100. I think, perhaps, metabolics is a specialty I should consider. I realized yesterday, metabolic disorders are really what got me into genetic counseling in the first place. When I took Intermediary Metabolism as an undergrad, I didn't not do very well. I couldn't tell you the pathways, or draw chemical structure to save my life. But I knew what happened if a molecule got displaced, or what disorders were in what pathway. The one molecule = one disease = (and usually) one cure idea is what got me started on this whole journey.
Last weekend, OM and I took Aubri to her first IG playdate. We've been going to the dog park pretty regularly, and she loves that. This playdate was IGs only, hosted at someone's house. It was amazing! There were probably about 20 dogs there. Considering the idea that OM and I never saw an IG until last November, we've gotten quite swept away in the breed culture, I think. Also to consider: Aubri is really the perfect size for us, but apparently, she is very little for the breed. We won the prize for smallest dog (even beating out the 7 month old puppy.)
Here's some of the dogs. I tried to find photos with minimal humans and maximum dogs.
I hope whoever this is will be okay with my posting her photo. This is a pretty good depiction of the puppy pandemonium.
Sometimes, I feel like this.
