I am really not looking forward to taking Step 3 tomorrow and Tuesday. It's amazing how much clinical medicine you can forget after just half a year of not using it. I've been studying, but I took a month off for Step 1 and Step 2. Getting an hour or two of reading in after work each night for a few weeks just isn't the same.

I did see a cool thing in the micro lab earlier this week: the "hockey puck sign." Colonies of Moraxella, when pushed, slide across agar like a hockey puck. Very neat.
