Bugs Bunny was right!

Ugh, so I just finished paying over $1,000 to get the CEU's I need to keep my nuclear medicine license, both nationally and from the state.

This sucks because I won't be seeing this returned to me in anyway until tax time in 2011. And because I haven't even worked in nuclear medicine for a year. And I'm still paying my freaking student loan for this degree. Which I don't use in any way.

So I am going to a SNM conference. (No not that kind of s&m) In February. In Albuquerque New Mexico. My first hotel choice was sold out. Flights are at cruddy times. The hotel I could finally find a room at has a 53% rating for its reviews.

Can you tell I am soooo totally happy about this? Why couldn't a mid-winter meeting be in Phoenix? Or Las Vegas? Any place but some crappy little town at 5,000' altitude in the middle of winter? With just junky hotels and no real attractions?

I knew I should have made a u-turn at Albuquerque!


PS-The weekend of the 24th I am in Santa Cruz for a big jiu jitsu tournament. Then the 30th in New Mexico for the nanotechnology and molecular imaging conference . Then Feb 6th is a bone density conference. Three stressful weekends back to back to back. At least one of them I will be sleeping in my own bed.
