I have one more week to remember how to ride a bike outside before going away to South Carolina with my hubby and teammates for an adventurous and exhausting week of bike riding in the rolling hills and mountains of north and south Carolina. Let's hope I survive. I see a lot of naps in my future. I think this is one of those vacations that I need a vacation to recover from!

In other news, tonight is the worst night of the year - we lose an hour of sleep. Too bad I have an activity planned for tomorrow and can't sleep in :(

mistakes

People don't talk about making mistakes in our offices. So, we go home and they fester in our bellies. We try to reach out to a colleague only to have them tell us not to take on too much responsibility lest the patient interpret that as guilt and sue us. There is a good TedX presentation on this from Dr. Brian Goldman. I still haven't found someone to tell about my mistakes that understands. Maybe I should email Brian.
