so glad

I am SO GLAD to be back in Omaha!! I loved hastings and all, but i have never been so glad to climb into my own bed in my whole life. the first seven weeks, i tried to be really positive, at least to the people in clinic, and when they asked me how the dorm was i would always be really vague and say something like, "it's a good place to sleep" or some bs like that. this week, though, i couldn't hold back any more, i couldn't fake it. i was telling everyone how excited i was to go home. and i was!! and now i'm home and i have a test today but i don't even care because i never have to go live in a small town by myself ever again!
Also, i finally finished my paper on asthma, which is contributing to my euphoric state. it's kind of a sorry excuse for a paper, but i really did enjoy learning more about asthma and i think i came up with an intervention that could theoretically be used. (it's just a sheet to keep track of peak flows and meds and stuff like that. simple, but practical.)
and, to top it off, this weekend we will be attending the berkshire hathaway festivities. you know, because we own all that stock. it will be a good excuse to put on a dress (i don't know if i've ever actually said that last phrase out loud) and do some good people watchin'.
i know, i never finished my jamaica stories. i will this weekend, when i'm not trying to write a 20-page paper.
