I know it's lame but...

I can't quit listening to the Casey Anthony trial.  They have the courtroom feed streaming live all day everyday.

The Other Dancing Outlaws

Just started watching The Wonderful and Wild Whites of West Virginia streaming on Netflix. It's basically the sequel to Dancing Outlaw. So far it looks promising and you get Jesco 20 years later.




That is one F'd up family!!!

So about that new map that Kevin made.....



You know that cool map that Kevin made with the Aaron's new location... well that might need to change. Next week I'm moving to San Deigo (founded by the German's) to take a new job with NuVasive. Working in Supply Chain with our Cervical products. ACDF products and Cortical Cancellous bonegraft (I'm gonna guess that only Aaron knows what that means).


It's a good opportunity and I'm in a position to make a move like this. I'm about 10% excited. The other 90% I feel like I'm going to throwup. Those percentages will gradually change as I get out there, get settled, and get working. Your prayers are definitely appreciated. I can once again say that as the stressful, uncertain times come into my life I lean on God more and more. I wish I always had as much focus and trust.


If you need a place to stay I probably can't help. It costs something like $1,700 a month for a 200 square foot apartment out there so I won't have the room. My cost of living calculations might be a little off, but it aint cheap out there. (Mental note, stop saying "aint" and replace with "tubular" or "brah")


That's my news. Hope everyone is doing well! Go Padres!

Forget Bastard Children Blogs

I started to update my spinoff blog but I decided I just wanted to let you guys know what was going on with me on The Original.

Jenny and I have been out here in LA 11 months now and our time is coming to an end. The time has come where my training is complete and I'm finally going to get a real job. In August I will be returning to Columbia, Mo. to work in the family medicine and orthopedic departments at Mizzou. The job is everything I was hoping for in my first job out of fellowship. I will be able to teach residents and medical students. I also wanted to continue to have a family medicine practice and I'll have 4 family medicine and 4 sports medicine clinics each week. I will also be working with the Univ. of Missouri athletes in some fashion but I don't know specific details at this point.


New orthopedic offices where I will have my sports medicine clinics.

Jenny and I are both excited to be closer to our families. Jenny's dad is doing very well with his battle against cancer. His blood tests and CT scans have been free of cancer. Today was actually his birthday and every special day is a big milestone. My brother and his wife had a beautiful baby girl 2 months ago and Jenny and I are excited to have a little niece. I never would have guessed it but Alex has become a frequent blogger and updates their site with lots of pictures.



Now some random things...

What I'm watching - Dexter Season 3. We had heard about Dexter from different people over the past few years but finally gave it a chance on Netflix. We streamed the first 2 seasons and now are almost done with season 3. It's gruesome but clever.

What I'm drinking - Moscow Mule. Jenny and I stumbled upon this drink last year and we've loved them in the summertime ever since. We like to modify the original recipe and use ginger ale instead of ginger bear.

What sports team I'm into - Sporting Kansas City. If you follow me on Twitter you know I've been tweeting quite a bit about soccer. I played quite a bit of soccer growing up but stopped around 13 or 14 when it got to be too busy. After the World Cup in 2006 I really started following it again but I've never been into the MLS. This year it has changed with Kansas City undergoing a rebranding (used to be the Wiz then the Wizards) and opening a new stadium. I love that you can follow almost all the players on Twitter and you feel like you actually know the guys on more of a personal level.

I hope to see you guys this summer when Jenny and I head down to Tennessee. It will probably be in early to mid-August and I'll let you guys know when we get closer.
