Renal

On my first week of nephrology, and I've been enjoying it so far. Attending is cool, residents are willing to teach, and the students are all reasonable. This is all you can ask for a elective rotation. Sometimes, I see the surgery teams rounding and I cringe. I would not want to be in that situation again. I even enjoy being in the ICU again, which is what medicine will do to you. I'm thinking I picked the right field. Medicine involves a lot of thinking and a little less doing. I can work with that.

Next up is getting a new phone. My HTC Evo 4G has been a trooper, making it the full two years of the contract and still being relevant. Granted, I'm still stuck on gingerbread (CM 7.2), but that is all you can ask for at this point. Right now, the Nexus 4 is at the top of my list. The thought of a fully-functional ICS smartphone with no contract for $300 is rather appealing. I may cave in and go back to another contract, but I'm trying to hold out at this point. One major aspect is getting the parent's upgraded to iPhones, which I'm sure they will be extremely pleased with. Can't argue with a very user-friendly interface. Sprint is crap, so we'll be switching to ATT or Verizon, although I'm leaning towards Verizon right now.
