I just had a cashier tell me “Stay safe out there” and she was referring to driving when the Texas-Oklahoma football game ends.
I just got back from a nature photography workshop in Jackson Hole. It was a great experience, and the primary lesson for me is that always being the expert in the room is unhealthy. Find situations where you are at the bottom of the learning curve and push yourself up it.
Happy birthday to my amazing wife @emilygironda. Spending my life with someone who wants to go a K pop concert one week and then the opera the next has been amazing. I can't wait to see what new adventures and rabbit holes we find ourselves down in the future.
To anyone thinking of reminding me, I promise I know when the USCAP submission deadline is. It's circled on my calendar every year.

This is an example of something I call NGS: Nagging Grandparents’ Syndrome
Someone is excited about something, and grandma or grandpa says, “Wait a second” and lists off everything that can go wrong
People online feel very smart doing this but it’s basically poor social skills
Most photos in a patient chart feel like hospital mugshots. One patient chart I was reviewing today, he had uploaded a jaunty portrait with MyChart. I obviously can't identify him at all, but I just want to put it out in the world that it made my day.
