I’m just trying to get by in life and not lose my moxie while I’m at it. I’m a resident at Nameless University Hospital in Nameless East Coast City and while sometimes my job really sucks, at least it gives me good blog material.

Found your blog through a link in GruntDoc’s side bar, and I had to come look! If you run out of Moxie, I’ll send you some of mine … I always have a 12 pack on hand … ;o)
Hope you’re having a nice, peaceful fall …
