Classes

I'm in work early today and am cutting my lunch hour so that I can leave at 3:30 and head into Boston to meet with a professor and register for a class. This is the one that I'm thinking of:

SOCIOL 681: Health Care Policy
This course focuses on recent changes in health care policy and in the organization of medicine with special attention to the impact of these changes on the delivery, distribution, and quality of health services. Additional emphasis is given to the history of medicine; the political economy of health care; inequality in utilization of and access to health services; rising costs and cost containment programs; attempts at regulation; and government health programs and private health service organizations. Prerequisites: Graduate standing and permission of instructor. 3 Lect Hrs, 3 Credits

Since this is related to my job I'll be reimbursed 100% (and the money won't be taxed as "income") - I just need to get at least a B :)

Today is going to feel like one of those days where I don't get much accomplished since I need to head over to Watertown at 12:30 for a 1:00 to 2:30 meeting. I'll get back to the office at 3:00 and will leave at 3:30!

Hey Baby, come and poke me!

My doctor called - in completing the immunization record required for school (still, I find it odd that its necessary to fill out an immunization record for Grad school) they found that I never had a tetanus shot or a Hepatitis B vaccine (isn't that a newish thing anyway? They didn't used to give them to kids).

So I need to make an appointment so that they can shoot me up.

I think I'll wait until after this weekend's shows - don't need one achy arm when I'm trying to catch 15 women falling on me :)
