Once again, I've fallen behind on my life updates, so let's get caught up.
Mala's pregnancy is going well, at least from the husband's point of view. She's due June 15th.
We drove to Orlando for my CME conference because Delta cancelled our flight. It turned out to be a nice thing because we got to see Puja, Ethan and Loki on the way down and we got to stop in Charleston, SC on the way back.
Not to be outdone by Delta, Northwest cancelled my flight to Minneapolis. For those scoring at home, that's 2 consecutive flights cancelled due to "weather"
Our job search came down to the wire and, in a difficult decision, we chose North Carolina. I'll be working as a hospitalist at Durham Regional Hospital (associated with Duke University) and Mala will be at the University of North Carolina.
We went to Baltimore for Mala's 10 year Hopkins Reunion. I got to see the campus where Mala went to college and we even took in a lacrosse game.
My brother Manu started to blog. Yes, this is a thinly veiled jab to get him to update again.
Puja and Farah threw a wonderful little baby shower for us. It was a lot of fun (yes, I just said that a baby shower was a lot of fun)
I just got back from a quick trip to North Carolina to find an apartment. We'll be staying at a place called Southpoint Village, assuming that it gets built in time. Everyone please cross your fingers.
My parents have moved to Dallas, TX, which means that the house I grew up with will be sold. It didn't hit me until just now, but I'll probably never see the inside of that house again.
We're both beginning to wind down at our current jobs. Mala's fellowship ends in June and my last day is July 10th. We'll move to NC at some point after that.
They finally turned the A/C on in the building here, which is really nice when the weather is 90+ and your wife is pregnant :)
