From Denver With Love

Hola from Denver! Actually, I'm in Aurora, CO, relaxing in my hotel room as I recover from my second-to-last interview day of my quest for residency. I'm finding that I like Denver a lot less than I thought I would, although in the city's defense I didn't actually see the downtown... or any part of Denver, really (so really I still may luurve Denver and not know it). But the hospital was amazing and seemed like a great place to be.

I'm amazed I got here at all, considering the 13-15 inches that were forecast in Chicago... and all of my flights for this trip either terminating or beginning in Chicago. Somehow I managed to land and take off just as the snow was beginning to fall yesterday, and I made it to my interview okay. We'll see how tomorrow goes!

Two things I hate about flying (among MILLIONS of things):
- when people behind you put their legs up against your seat and stretch, pushing you and jostling you and etc for the whole flight
- when you can't get your small carry-on (I'm talking a gym-bag sized duffel) in the overhead because people put their freakin' purses and coats in and take up the whole damn compartment
- when people in seats behind you push past you during landing instead of letting each aisle go in turn... and then they hold up the process by spending forever getting their stuff down from the overhead
- dogs in the seat next to you. I love dogs, but I do not like sitting next to dogs on the plane. They fart, or belch, or something, and it smells! Stinky!

K, 'nuff complaining (haha I totally broke my resolution about not complaining)!

Seeya when I get back to the 'burgh! Home sweet 'burgh!
