Fat Cat

I took Went to the vet yesterday and got some interesting news. Apparently, Wentworth is 5.5 pounds and only twelve weeks old. Perhaps this statistic means something to you, but to me, it just meant he was younger than I thought. Well, according to the vet, his size indicates that he is going to be one fat cat. Instead of weighing in at a respectable three pounds, he tips the scales at nearly twice the average weight! I suppose he just wants to be better than average. So, I've been coping with his inevitable ballooning into 'sumo kitty.' Stay tuned for more tales of the big, bad, blue kitty (yes, his color is officially 'blue' and not 'gray'... also news to me).

In other news: the Olympics are great. I've been watching the games over dinner and find swimming, diving, and gymnastics captivating. Favorite event: Men's 4x100m freestyle relay

In med school news: protein synthesis, DNA transcription and translation, anatomy of upper extremity + brachial plexus, epithelial and connective tissues, layers of the skin, cell membranes and organelles
