dchenesIt's Friday, and as of this morning I can stop worrying about the P&R agenda for Tuesday. I don't have anything against orthopedic surgery as a specialty, but the Department of Orthopedic Surgery as an administrative entity seems to want to give me ulcers and insomnia (neither of which can be treated by an orthopedic surgeon, so it's not like they're drumming up business). However, now that I've finally heard from them, I can sleep this weekend.
Next week I have to remember (a) that I'm going to a work-process-improvement class on Thursday, and (b) that I have some homework to do before I go there. Problem being, I have to somehow take "we're taking on responsibility for six thousand junior faculty appointments that we weren't previously responsible for" and condense all the implications thereof down to one paragraph. That ought to be an interesting hour or so. Hopefully the class itself will also be interesting. One of the people who's running it is the person who runs our annual office retreat, which does tend to be interesting, so I have hope.
Mutter grumble Board of Registration mutter mutter...the Board of Registration in Medicine issues temporary medical licenses. I have somebody who needs one for two days in the end of March, and the Board meets once in March, and the hospital department has called me approximately six times in the last week and a half to ask if the paperwork has been signed and sent yet. (This is after they called in early February to ask what they had to do, and then lost the form I emailed to them for three weeks, and then called again to ask me what to do.) If it turns out this guy can't get his temporary license for two days in the end of March because I couldn't send the forms, I'm going to feel awful. Even though it isn't my fault.
It occurs to me that I'm not going to be able to email it on the actual Due South Day, also known as The Eleventh of March, so Happy (Early) Due South Day.
