Also, not letting the 200 or so miles between Portland and Seattle keep me from hooking up with the then-future-Mrs. JJD.

| #12 Posted on 5.12.05 1539.04 Reposted on: 5.12.12 1541.38 | When I was in college, I was Pre-Med. I am very very glad that I realized before the end of college that my brain is NOT wired properly to be a physician. Of course, I will now spend the rest of my life wondering what I should be doing with life, but I am still much happier NOT trying to be a doctor.
(Not that I stood a chance in hell getting into med school... But at least I didn't waste time trying. Did I mention that medical schools want 50 to 100 dollars just to read your school application?)
Also, being married is way cool. For me at least. | rinberg
