Earlier this week was my dad's birthday, and yesterday was my younger brother's birthday. It sounds like they're having a great time eating out... wish I could be home too. Our two new dogs, Odie and Yoshi, should be a lot bigger this next time I return home, which will be at the end of February.

Today is the second day off for my rotation. I have a lot of errands to run, yet I have not had any time to read. So much to do and so little time to do it.
