Time to catch up!

I know it's been forever, June came and went with nary a post, so I'm going to catch up for this whole month. A lot has happened. I'll just give the headlines:

I had hand and elbow surgery. Carpal tunnel, tendinitis in my thumb and a nasty nerve in my elbow has gotten the better of me, so I had to have some surgery. That happened the Wednesday after Memorial Day. Mom and Dad came down to Vegas to take care of me. They had this killer condo, and it was an awesome place to rest and recover. I was in a sling for awhile, and it's still a little stiff and sore, but at least I'm in no pain and there is no numbness. While my parents were here we went to Cirque Du Soliel The "O" Show. It was awesome! I saw it in 2000 with Josh but it was just as amazing. My parents loved it and I had a great time with them, even if I was a little uncomfortable.

I was able to see on of my besties Josh. I haven't seen him forever, and it was great to catch up and take in a movie, that's our favorite thing to do so it was like the good old days.

School.. So it's a little crazy right now. Every few modules (a module is 10 weeks) we switch classes. I've had my current class for 3 modules. I've been their teacher since they've started. I taught them all through freshman and the first 10 weeks they were on the floor. It's been so great to see how they've progressed, but we had to move on. I took them on a field trip to the bodies exhibit. We had recently finished the Anatomy chapter, so it was great to go and see all the bones, muscles and nerves. It was a great evening, and a awesome way to end our time together. I now have a new freshman class of (gulp) 25 students. My new class has more students then the 3 previous classes combined. They started Monday, and so far it's gone pretty well. It will be nice to have some "greenies" again.

I know it doesn't seem like a lot. I can sum up a month in 3 paragraphs, but like I said just the headlines. I left out all the negative craziness. I don't want to dwell on that. Hopefully now that things have mellowed out I'll post more often. But that's about it. July here I come.
