Wedding Planning and Back Muscles

My levator scapulae is killing me. I need a vacation. I know... All brides go through this crap. Family drama, drama with your spouse-to-be, who should you invite, who shouldn't you invite. It's all bizarre. Weddings are supposed to be fun, right? I can tell you one thing: I will NOT do this to my son's fiancĂ© or my own daughter. I will remember what it is like to be pulled in 80 directions by family and I will specifically not do that.

I'm supposed to be trying to learn virtually every muscle in the body in 5 hours and be able to tell their attachments, insertions, actions, origins. This is insanity. INSANITY. I need a better work ethic. The truth is, although I love PA school, I am thoroughly burnt out. I can barely keep myself afloat. It's ridiculous. The one thing I look forward to each week is my clinical rotation. That is definitely awesome.

Last week I took a 5 day break from school. I pretty much did nothing the entire time. It was fabulous. I walked around downtown crossing, shopped, did nothing. Shopped again Friday, did nothing. Laid around all day Saturday and Sunday!

Perfect- just what I needed. I did feel guilty that I wasn't studying for this dumb test. But it was all worth it. Ok back to work :(
