Wife of Green Tables

OR- Putting shame in your name


JAKE- The last of the interviews have been finished at the Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center. I have interviewed for four different positions now, and all of them are pretty varied in context. First was EKG Tech (doing ekg's on patients) then, Phlebotomist (drawing patients' blood) third was Surgical Support Tech II (do everything in the operating room that you never think about having to be done) and finally, Sterile Instruments Tech II (clean surgical instruments). Oh sure there a few that i would prefer over the others, but can i really be picky? They all seemingly offer great pay and benefits. Chelsea and I had our first ever family home evening tonight, and yes, it was just about the cutest thing ever. I prepared a media-enriched interactive lesson that really hit the spot. Did you know that the Vermont Law School nickname and logo is the Fighting Swans? Chelsea is a Fighting Swan. Maybe not as bad as the Wichita State University Wheatshockers, the Campbell College Fighting Camels, or the University of California at Irvine Anteaters. All of which strike fear in the hearts of their opponents and the hearts of the people who make sweatshirts and caps with these ridiculous logos on them, hoping someone will buy. This just in, sadly the Russell sweatshirt company has opted to use the following as their nickname and logo- The Russell Sweatshirt Falling Profit Margins.

hee hee -- did you know that the college Steve used to teach at were the fighting artichokes? By the way, you're making our "watching Simpsons" family home evenings look a little weak. Don't try to overcome all your wife's little corruptions too quickly. Good Luck on all things job/medical!

Good luck on the job search...

And by the way, I attended the afore mentioned school of the Fighting Artichokes--and I proudly purchased several artichoke labeled items. You only get to enjoy that once in your life! :)
