Thanks, Paul. Yeah, after thinking about it a bit I decided it wouldn't be best to keep worrying about it.
Unfortunately my mom emailed me saying she thinks she won't apply to that hospital anymore because of what I did. Honestly, that decision doesn't make sense to me, and in the end if that's what she chooses to do, I know it's not my fault, but it still really sucks and I feel pretty bad about that! Also I accidentally told my aunt a little about what was going on because I forgot my mom was keeping her unemployed status a secret !!! I realized my mistake and now she just thinks my mom is looking into getting a position less stressful than the operating room, but still, ugh, self.
phooey:
This morning, as I walked through the melting snow and the effervescent sunlight of the morning, I crossed a bridge. This bridge is a popular spot for contemplation because I can look at the lazy river below and wonder where I have gone wrong. I stand here, pondering the meaning of my insignificant life until I am either late for my appointments or nearly run over by a one-speed-bicyclist or natty old woman in a Honda.
This morning, however, there was a significant variation in this usual scene. With the advent of early spring, the ice gilding the shifting surface of the river began to fade out and gossamer cracks in the ice turned into rifts between ice floes. As I looked up the river, I could see an ice floe traveling downstream, a wibble-wobbling down towards me, and as it got closer, I could see two ducks. Their little orange feet labored to stay on the sheet of ice, and they pecked haphazardly every other second for reasons that remain a mystery to me.
I feasted my eyes upon this sight. I looked until I could look no longer. I felt like a voyeur into this magical world of surfing ducks; an interloper. The feeling that I dd not belong, however, did nothing to sully the surge of wellness that had come over me. I continued the rest of my comparatively banal day with a feeling of grace.
TL;DR: Surfing ducks. Fuck yeah.

Except in Italy, where pizzas are designed to be eaten whole.
