Hematology, Iowa City and Veggies

I had quite a busy day today which makes me even more glad that Friday is almost here. I went to the Hematologist today to finally learn and understand what my blood disorder is and what this means for the rest of my life. Fortunately, I received mostly good news. I realized today that it isn't anything close to a death sentence, just a speedbump. I can handle speedbumps.

When I got back to work around noon, my boss had order Jimmy John's for the office, so I didn't have to worry about lunch. He got my favorite, the vegetarian, no mayo. Though I shouldn't have leafy greens, I just can't help it.

I left work around 1:30 to leave for Iowa City around 2:00. For the online course Eryn and I are taking through OTC, we have to take a proctored final. Unfortunately, the closest place we could find a "licensed proctor"(I think that is made up) was in Iowa City, 2 hours away. So we drove there, took our final, then came back.

When we got there, we parked near the old Capitol and decided we would stop by to take pics after the test (see amateur pic to the right). It was cool to see part of Iowa's history. It is located downtown near a couple of different textbook shops and mexican bars. However, it has to be the cutest downtown I have seen. It honestly reminded me of when I walked the streets of Hollywood, which is probably a weird reference. Needless to say, I would love to live in Iowa City.

The test was not terrible, but it could have gone better. I am confident I got the 50 something percent I needed to pass the class. I am cool with that.

Eryn and I were both quite hungry after the test, so we tried to find a place to eat. It just so happens there was a Which Wich right outside our testing facility, so the decision was made for us. Nothing beats a toasted hummus and avocado veggie sandwich on wheat bread. Yum, yum.

Normally, Jimmy John's would be the best meal I ate that day, but the only exception to that statement is Which Wich. I had my two favorite meals in one day. Life is good. :)
