Sadly Saturday was not a sleep in day. We had to get things moving bright and early, so clearly a sunrise java run was in the cards. After meeting with our (now confirmed) wedding photographer we hit up the 23rd St/7th Ave Whole Foods. It was only 11, but Kyle signed us BOTH up for [...]

Boy oh boy is it exhausting taking NYC by storm in one weekend! Sunday’s weather was far nicer than Saturday’s (in that there was less rain), but JUST as nasty in terms of humidity… I still started the day with java and fruit. There may have been a bit of a SoapNet marathon throughout [...]

You know how visitors make you a tourist in your own city? Well, I had an absolute ball of a time in NYC while my baby sis, Marie, was in town. The weather wasn’t too cooperative, but we made do. After our late Thursday night out on the town, we slept in a bit (well, [...]

Remember that horribly inappropriate song?? Well, today I had an appt with an Osteopaedic MD who specializes in the spine. I’ll get into the deets later, but rest assured, I’ll be making some changes so I don’t end up looking like this by my 30th birthday. I started the day with coffee. Doesn’t that [...]

I woke up at 6:50 am today. FYI, my shift starts 7. Uh. Oops? After having a mini-stroke, I got my butt in gear and hauled ass to work. If there’s ONE THING you should know about me, it is this: I HATE CHAOS. Odd, given my job right? To be honest, I feel like [...]

Propofol, propofol, so much propofol. And yet, no amount seemed too much. I’m not exaggerating when I say this: I gave BEYOND lethal doses of sedatives today, and my patient was still so resistant he spent 12 straight hours trying to extubate himself. Boy was my patience on trial with this guy. Fentanyl, Propofol, Methadone, [...]

Wow. Time flies when you’re having fun blogging about it. It feels like just yesterday I stumbled across this amazing community of foodies and decided to begin a blog about my adventures in the vegan kitchen. Who would have known the decision to write (almost daily) about my food/exercise/etc would have impacted my life the [...]
