Day 8 - Everyone has moments in their lives when they shine, when their accomplishments have been recognized and it is obvious that their hard work was worth it.What was your proudest moment? How did it feel? What did you learn from it? What will your next moment look like?

When I graduated medical school. I can't even recall what it really felt like. Surreal, like it was suddenly just OVER. Eight years of my life and a quarter of million dollars later, I'm standing on a stage listening to the Cleveland Orchestra playing our graduation music for us. I walked across the stage and my favorite professor put a green hood around my neck and the scary realization set in. I'm no longer a student. People's lives were in my hands. In a few weeks I was going to NYC. My parents were so proud. We went to my after graduation party then raced home so I could be maid of honor in my best friend's wedding then I jumped a plane to New Orleans to celebrate.

My next moment will be me selling a novel. I think that will be soon. At leastI hope it is.

From dreamspinner To close out the year with a bang, we're doing 12 Days of Christmas Savings, starting tomorrow through Dec. 31 with a different special each day. This info is usually only in their newsletter (but you don't need to get the newsletter to get the offer but it could be a fun newsletter to get)

I can't even begin to imagine how surreal it must have felt.

I'd make a snide comment about your brain, but you might remember how to drive and find me.

Maybe. I might take the chance, since I know how much you love Indiana.

I did. And surely we want to go back to the Jewish restaurant.

Too bad we can't go in January, when the FMA movie will be on the big screen.

I doubt I could if the roads are covered in snow...

It's too light weight.

Plus, I hate driving in snow...

well southern bred wimpiness aside, the truck is a poor choice in the winter yes
