It was a small error on my part I like to call &#8220;getting distracted&#8221;.  I&#8217;m going to try to do better this time.<br \/>The past month since I visited home has flown by!  I was SO happy to see so many of you when I visited.  We should really have weddings and 50th anniversaries more often!  I&#8217;m already planning my next trip for January.  Keep your fingers crossed that the snow stays in the mountains where it belongs so my travel plans don&#8217;t turn into me sleeping in any airports. \ud83d\ude42  Speaking of trips&#8230;when are you coming to Utah? \ud83d\ude42<br \/>Life here in Utah is well.  I&#8217;m really enjoying having Dr. Eric Heiden (<a href=\"http:\/\/intermountainhealthcare.org\/xp\/public\/tosh\/aboutus\/news\/article6.xml\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/intermountainhealthcare.org\/xp\/public\/tosh\/aboutus\/news\/article6.xml<\/a>)<br \/>and Dr. Max Testa (<a href=\"http:\/\/intermountainhealthcare.org\/xp\/public\/tosh\/aboutus\/news\/article5.xml\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/intermountainhealthcare.org\/xp\/public\/tosh\/aboutus\/news\/article5.xml<\/a>)<br \/>around here at TOSH.  It makes things much busier in the physiology lab, which is a welcome sight.  I walked into the lab today where Max was doing a bike fit for an athlete to the greeting &#8220;What&#8217;s up boss?&#8221; complete with thick Italian accent.  Let&#8217;s just say he&#8217;s very personable and welcomes all the help he can get.<br \/>Eric seems great as well.  We did a motion analysis session with him a few weeks ago to explore the possibilities with cycling in the biomechanics lab.  That guy is in phenomenal shape!  There was also some discussion of me owing him a case of beer after removing some leg hair along with the removal of the sticky-backed motion analysis markers.  Oops. \ud83d\ude09  At least he has a good sense of humor.<br \/>I&#8217;m getting to be a little more lab-savy.  It&#8217;s taking some time since Steve travels like a mad-man, but we&#8217;re making progress.  With any luck, I&#8217;ll be a biomechanice lab pro in say 10 years. \ud83d\ude42  (OK&#8230;not that bad&#8230;maybe in a couple more months).  My first yearly job review is coming up in a week or two, hopefully I&#8217;ll have some more insight soon about where my position is headed.<br \/>I&#8217;m gearing up to apply to grad school(s).  Most likely I&#8217;ll stay here and go to the U of U.  It seems like a no-brainer of sorts, since my job will pay a bunch of my tuition, I can do my thesis using the resources of TOSH, and keep working to boot!  No cost of moving&#8230;no brand new city&#8230;I think I can handle Utah for another couple of years&#8230;then again ask me tomorrow \ud83d\ude09<br \/>I&#8217;ve switched up my routine and joined the morning workout crowd.  I realized that I felt sad and dragging a lot lately and realized not working out probably had something to do with it, so now I&#8217;m hitting the gym at 7am.  It&#8217;s a good time of day since I can&#8217;t really make the excuses that I did at the end of a work day.  Basically I role my butt out of bed, get dressed and then wake up mid-way through my stretching warm-up wondering how I got to the gym :).  Good times.<br \/>I have no plans for Halloween, but I&#8217;m already eating the candy.  Darn those sales at Target!  A big thanks to Miss Kahler for bringing the &#8220;black cat punching cat pen&#8221; into my life just in time for Halloween.  I can&#8217;t explain this nifty writing instrument adequately via e-mail, but let&#8217;s say it&#8217;s a real hit with the kids at work (and most of my co-workers as well.)  Nice job Sarah!<\/p>\n<p>I hope this e-mail finds everyone doing very well.  I also hope I hear back from every single on of you!  I know these aren&#8217;t very personal, but I do my best to reply back to anyone who e-mails me \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Take Care!!<br \/>Steph~<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p class=\"excerpt\">Hello once again,I apologize as a recently realized only half of the list got the last update.
