Men

Was chatting with Jono and Phil two or three weekends ago, and one of them said I should write a list of things I wanted in a future partner.

I think the second part of that was to write down what I thought such a person would in turn want in a partner but that's for another day. Also how would I know what a man wants?! Anyway, this is my list.

1) He must love God deeply and have an intimate relationship with God.
- Why? Because for him to be in the position to lead me and our family, he must himself be led by God.

2) He should be kind, generous and compassionate.

3) He should be intelligent and should engage in conversation. He should be willing to share his thoughts on life, goals, dreams and direction.

4) He should above all be loyal and faithful!

5) He should have a desire to participate in or achieve or work towards a goal that is greater than ourselves.

6) He must love me and want to know me, do life with me and explore everything the world has to offer.

7) He must treat others with kindness and respect (and ideally be someone presentable enough so I can take him out on the rare occasion that I have social obligations).

Brugada Syndrome

I don't think I will ever be a plastic surgeon. Not because I like plastics any less but because I cannot let cardiology go. Today I started studying cardiology cases for my exams and came across a segment on Brugada syndrome and the ECG patterns that are typical to this condition. I was surprised to see that this condition was discovered and described as recently as 1992 by a family of Spanish Catalan doctors (the Brugada doctors). I love finding 'new' cardiology information because the problem with being so interested in something is that I sometimes run out of novel 'findings' to keep me interested in the field. Lately I have been reading about microvascular dysfunction (related to womens cardiac conditions) and today Brugada ECGs. I think I could do this forever.

Connecting the dots

I was reading an article in Forbes today on the world's most influential women and was somewhat struck by the realisation that I float in some of these circles, loosely but in general only by one degree of separation. I have never understood why I have been allowed to meet these people and to get to know them on a personal level. I don't know if anything is meant to come of it, or if perhaps there are just so many of them that all of us know someone or other. But sometimes I can't help but wonder, what the hell. How is it that little old me knows some of the most powerful and some of the richest in the world? I am a nobody. I feel like a nobody. And yet somehow, I've made it to the edges of all this. What??

Life Zzzzzzzzzzzz

I always feel like life needs to be packed with amazing and exciting things... so it never feels right when my weekends are empty. I get bored, and boredom doesn't sit well with me! It will be A.W.E.S.O.M.E. when I am back in my own apartment with pretty furniture and the amazing Apple iMac that I will finally buy and UNLIMITEDDDDD internet. It will certainly be really really awesome.
