|yes man|

i have trouble saying no to people. i think that may be how i ended up married to matt.

i kid. obviously.

but, today, i did something tremendous for myself. i asked my program director to find a new chief resident. purely selfish reasons... like i need time to study for the boards, and i need time for myself. and the baby. who is really not so much a baby anymore.

i am so relieved. that was a pretty hard thing for me to do. i should never have said yes to a second year of chief duties. now i've mucked and muddled in things.... and i've probably made some people annoyed. but i did the right thing -for me.
