I was wondering if anybody would be interested in gathering like those in Houston did? I think it might be kind of fun to get together and swap stories with somebody who ACTUALLY understands what we are going through.

Anyone interested?

Just a FYI, When this gets going

Tues and Wed from 2/11 - 3/5 bad for me

Every Thursday Bad

After 3/5, I have no clue what is good or bad.

Evenings bad (work second shift) Could take vacation time if I have any left.

I hope my schedule does not complicate anything

Glad to hear about some interest! I hope to get somemore people to join in!

Sue with hope, you think your schedule is crazy? Try mine! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

Anyway what times work well for everyone? I was thinking of lunch some day. I am pretty open as my schedule is crazy yet flexible.

How about a location? Mpls? I live in the NW suburbs. I wouldn't mind driving to find a convinent location for others.

Thanks for responding!

I'm okay with MPLS if you can give very detailed directions. I am coming from the St. Paul area suburbs.

Lunch sounds good. I know, my schedule is crazy. Also, Feb 6 is bad, Just remembered

I work evenings, go to school during the day.

Class is every Thursday, study group meets after class. Feb is when my clinicals start, after that, I have a preceptorship, dont have that schedule yet. I hope it is a 2nd shif schedule.

Graduate in May, then life can try to return to normal

Luki I looked at your post regarding BAN but have not been to any meetings. What are they like? I was just thinking of meeting to talk about anything we wanted not just our M's. I don't know I think it would be kind of fun. Thoughts?

I don't want to do the BAN thing either. I will get together for a MB lunch like they do in Houston. I think that would be rather cool

Ok, OK sorry I haven't been aroung much lately, work just got really busy for me.

I am going to try the BAN thing next week and see what it is like. If there is interest I would still love to meet everyone and get together. So when would you like to do this????

I don't know what my schedule is like right now but I will keep you posted. Weekends are always good for me but not so much for those of you with families.

I will keep checking this post and see what happens.

Weekends are bad for me, kids and activities. I might be able to swing it though.

Weekdays are best for me, but I also work 2nd shift. Have Class on thursday's, Month of Feb, have clinicals on Tues & Wed. So, or you day working folks, Weekdays will probably be bad.

I could check the boys hockey schedule, Sat are better than Sundays since Sat. they practice and sunday is games.

Fridays are good days for me to take extended lunches( wait..I do that every day! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> )

Like Sue with hope, I am "East-Coast" so a central location would be preferred.

How about the "Gay 90s" off of Hennipen? J.K. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" />

I will be out of town feb 14 to march 3.
