Veins of Ink, Calves of Steel: January 2009
http://veinsofink.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Veins of Ink, Calves of Steel. The fame was like a drug. But what was even more like a drug were the drugs. -Homer Simpson. Thursday, January 22, 2009. My second niece was born about 4:30 this morning. She weighs eight pounds, including her mullet, reports my relatively tired sister, who went into labor at 7:30 pm but still managed to watch all three hours of Lost! Jeez, I was exhausted just from THAT myself! Posted by E.S.C. Links to this post. Sunday, January 11, 2009. I can't get accustomed to the ide...

Veins of Ink, Calves of Steel: March 2008

Veins of Ink, Calves of Steel. The fame was like a drug. But what was even more like a drug were the drugs. -Homer Simpson. Tuesday, March 11, 2008. Not my preferred terrain for a stroll. In non-metaphorical news, the A-10 hoops tourney is at Boardwalk Hall in AC this weekend, Holly's in town the next weekend, and my fantasy baseball draft is the weekend after that. And a lot of work in between. Posted by E.S.C. Links to this post. Tuesday, March 4, 2008. So I told him . Not effectively, no.).

dorks, not nerds: Less depressing stuff
http://hwong14.blogspot.com/2009/08/less-depressing-stuff.html
Tuesday, August 11, 2009. Last week we had a patient who came into the ER with chest pain. 33 years old, otherwise previously healthy, though with a significant family history of cardiac disease. Chest pain, and in the ER, he went into V-fib. No, I do not generally get my medical news from CNN; however, I was post-call and just doing some fluff reading on the Internet.). Our patient did great! So of COURSE he wants to keep her alive and on the ventilator - he wants her money! And finally, I walked home t...

dorks, not nerds: August 2009
http://hwong14.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 20, 2009. I used it a lot this past weekend, with great results. Here's a recap:. Saturday, dinner with my friend and bridesmaid Karen, her husband Jake, and their 2-year-old daughter, Lily:. Brushchetta as an appetizer: Tomatoes, diced onion, fresh basil, a splash of good balsamic vinegar, a drizzle of EVOO, and salt and pepper. Serve with a good loaf of bread - we got a baguette from the Asian grocery store down the street (Vietnamese cuisine has a lot of French influence, remember).

dorks, not nerds: Spring!
http://hwong14.blogspot.com/2010/03/spring.html
Tuesday, March 23, 2010. January and February, as they always do, had me in a funk this year. The only good thing about it was the snow, and even that wasn't all happy, because once I had the taste of a real, honest-to-goodness snow day (last one ever, I'm sure! I just became more and more bitter at ever having to go to work at all, snow or not. Give me an inch, I'll demand a mile, and all that. And what an end it's going to be. After this crazy stretch, I get one. entire. week. off! To do nothing with!

Veins of Ink, Calves of Steel. The fame was like a drug. But what was even more like a drug were the drugs. -Homer Simpson. Tuesday, May 27, 2008. After a third of the season, the Phillies are 30-24, on pace for 90 wins, one more than they got last year when they won the division. However, they're 1.5 games behind Florida at the moment. Holly got that nonsense with Super 8 straightened out. Night clerk didn't know from whence she spoke, but day clerk did. Whew. Posted by E.S.C. Links to this post. Super ...

dorks, not nerds: July 2009
http://hwong14.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 28, 2009. Saturday, July 25, 2009. It's hard to pick back up when you haven't blogged in so long. I want to do a huge recap and tell all the crazy stories from the last two months - TWO MONTHS! My graduation speech was awesome, thank you very much. I got the DVD in the mail last week, but haven't watched it yet. The two weeks between graduation and the wedding were crazy. Crazy fun, but still crazy. The honeymoon was amazing. We need to write it all down before we forget all about it. Files...

dorks, not nerds: November 2009
http://hwong14.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 08, 2009. The aftershocks of the death of our post-partum patient from H1N1 pneumonia. Because she's 80% effaced for me." And for once, I was really confident in my exam, and I knew she hadn't been effaced an hour prior. Since it was 2 am and my turn to go down for an on-call nap, I went to sleep for 2 hours. And when I got up at 4, the third-year said, "Guess what! Ms B is in labor! She's 5 cm now.". And I was there and able to do it! Why couldn't I have gone into a less stressful field?

dorks, not nerds: Surprise Delivery!
http://hwong14.blogspot.com/2011/04/surprise-delivery.html
Sunday, April 17, 2011. I hope she doesn't mind that I share that she had a beautiful baby boy, and did it in one of the most calm, controlled deliveries I've had in a while. She is an inspiration to delivering mothers everywhere! I hope she and J enjoy the new addition to their family. It was a funny series of little hints that led me to ask her, after one set of pushes, after J revealed he was a surgery resident, if she wrote a blog. And suddenly, we figured it out! I love these small-world moments!
