Stupid phone.

I got this phone because all my calls were going straight to voicemail. I figured this was a problem with AT&T’s TDMA system, but I now realize this was a system-wide problem. My sister tried to call last night and the first time NOTHING HAPPENED. The second time, the message went directly to voicemail. I think I’ve decided that I really don’t trust the cell phone companies. No surpise there.


So last night my sleep was interrupted twice. The first time I was in the middle of a dream where I was in a classroom full of premeds and I was explaining how I never made it into medical school. Plus the usual parts of why I gave up after all those years and all those rejection letters. And why I’m not trying again, not going to the Carribean to an offshore medical school, not applying to a D.O. program, etc, etc. All I could think was, WHY IS THIS STILL TORMENTING ME? I suppose it was because I talked to a podiatrist at the gym who said I was better off for never getting in. I told him, yeah, but now I was a different kind of bitter.


And back to my cell phone, the pictures aren’t all that great. For example, see the beautifully clear picture of Mt. St. Helens this morning?

Or the beautifully red sunset over the hills of Scappoose?

Or the clear lettering of the Korean bidet store?
