And One More . . . . CA Baby!!

Well hopefully, and I say that not because I want Chad to stop getting interviews but because our credit card is about to max out, this is the last one.  

Drum roll please. . . . . . . . . . . For Kim Gardner and all the rest of you praying that Chad would get an interview in CA it finally happened.  St. Mary's in Long Beach CA  (A UCLA affiliate) offered Chad an interview for their Internal Medicine program.  So off we go.  It's going to be a crazy two weeks for Chad.  He gets to visit programs in Texas, Kentucky, Wisconsin, Wyoming, Idaho, Arizona, California and Utah.  (Then he gets a week and a half off before heading out to Ohio).  Crazy life.  Did I mention that I get to plan a birthday party?  Jake wants a Star Wars theme and apparently mock battles to take place.  Wish me luck.

Yes, we have to pay for it all. (And let me tell you, last minute flights are not cheap) But if you want to add up all the application fees over the years for programs and interviews the military made us pass up, it's not so bad. Better to spend the money now and get a job then spend another year in limbo and apply all over again next year.
