Well, not too much bad news...not news at all really. My clinical coordinator is not very organized, and I'm being polite here (just in case this message gets into the wrong hands!). Anyhow, she "lost" my first email, sent the beginning of October. I'm not sure how an email gets lost, but oh well. Found this out 3 weeks later when I called and nothing new had happened *surprise, surprise*...I resent the email immediately, and she confirmed receipt. I also called her to talk about a 1 week remediation internship which I could complete before my wedding, and then followed up 2 days later with the same in writing, on October 18th. Let's see...today is November 11th, and no reply to that email. That's 3 and a half weeks, folks. (So much for getting the remediation out of the way early, too late now!) I mean, I know I'm anal by checking my email 5x a day, but a simple "I got it, and I'll work on it" after nearly a month would suffice! OK, so then my dad helped me write up a carefully worded email on November 5th, requesting that all internships be sorted out by Friday the 21st (day before the wedding), and that I can begin my repeat internship Monday, January 5th. I'll be out of town from Nov. 23rd to Dec. 15th (Australia), and again from Dec. 18th to 31st (Canada). So really, only 10 days left for her to get her act together, which for the past 6 weeks she has done absolutely nothing. Frustrated to say the least, but I think its out of my hands now.
OK, enough rambling about the bad things! SO, wedding count down to 10 days! I'm super excited! Everything is coming together really nicely. I spent a beautiful day in Napa on Friday (sampled 19 different wines..woah! LOL). I went with one of my friends from North Carolina, who was here on a business trup. My bachelorette party is on Friday, the 14th in San Francisco, and we'll spend the night (8 or 9 of us, just girls!). My friend came down on Saturday and we bought $100 worth of brand new make-up (on dad's credit card, even better! LOL) (she's gonna make me pretty for the wedding :)) My bridal shower will be on Sunday the 16th, with about 20 ladies for lunch and jabber :). Then I'll be taking my cousins to the bay aquarium on Monday (they are 8 and 10...flower girl and ring bearer, so they'll really appreciate spending the day with just me and them!) And the best news of all, is that I got my prescription filled :). My regular PCP is on maternity leave, and I was afraid that her cover physician wouldn't fill my meds. Well, I was wrong! I ordered 90 pills (tylenol 3) and was sent 3 bottles of 30. Not usually the way I get them, but who cares! The way my insurance works, they are "free", with no co-pay. It really gives me peace of mind to know that my pain can be well managed on all of my travels out of the country, and I won't have to worry about refills for a while! Happy days are here!
Sorry got a little long...I know some of you enjoy reading my wedding updates :) And I promise I'll get pictures up by January, but not sure how much time I'll have in November and December. I'll do my best!
