Well it has been 9 days since my last post, but a lot has been accomplished. Hey! I said more regular, not scheduled regularly.

In Life these past 9 days:

• The St. Louis Cardinals won the National League Championship Series and are currently 1-0 in the World Series against the Texas Rangers.
• Julie & Mike McCourt had a beautiful baby boy named Riley Francsis McCourt. (I know...I liked Wilson Francis McCourt better too!) Both baby and Julie are doing well, hopefully out and about soon...keep them in your prayers.
• I survived the 10 midterms/finals/quizzes/practicums/papers that I had over the past two weeks (11 days actually). Yes, it was insane. I'm hopefully catching up on sleep this next week.
• Bryce and Eileen Fortner were married on Saturday, Oct. 15 and had a beautiful Billiken wedding.
• Steve Jobs, the inventor and creator of Apple, Inc., passed away from respiratory arrest due to his long battle with pancreatic cancer.
• I successfully passed two practicums which proved that my "Critical Skills" and "Medical Administration" skills are satisfactorily up to par.
• My Philosophy teacher is still just as delusional.
• No one close or relatively close to me or my family has passed away or suffered from severe illnes. #ItIsAboutTime

As Fall Break approaches, and I break my yearly tradition of visitng ISU over their homecoming weekend, life has finally slowed down. At this moment in time, I have no tests coming up. No papers to write. No things to plan or do. I have work today and tomorrow, and a clinical orientation tomorrow morning. I have a couple weekend desk shifts to attend, and one night I am on call. The highlight of my weekend is volunteering in the Medical Tent of the St. Louis Rock & Roll Marathon and Half Marathon. So that is where I will be, probably all day on Sunday. Look for me there, as I'm on the sweep team! We'll see how it goes, I get a free T-shirt!

Best,
Wilson
