post-call shenanigans

I was draggin' post-call yesterday, disoriented after a busy night and a long nap afterwards. Fortunately, I resisted the temptation to lie around in my underwear and simply read comic books when I was invited to go out with the core members of the HUP SAR Men's Club. I always feel better when I go out and do something post-call, even if I'm tired. It makes me feel more like a normal person and less like I've "lost" a day.

The HUP SAR Men's club was originally the HUP Intern Men's Club, and all male members of the Internal Medicine residency class are included. Thus far we have sponsored such worthwhile endeavors as the McDonaldland Eating Challenge, the 1st & 2nd Annual Mustache Competetion, and HUP Bowls I-III. Last night, however, was simply an informal get-together and impromptu celebration of the engagement of my friend Dave Portnoy with his lovely lady friend Lisa Usdan. Congrats!

That's it for now. I'm going to try & finish up in clinic soon so I can get to see this play--reviews to follow...
