While heading home last Friday from our posh <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tajhotels.com\/Boston\/\">dinner<\/a> for the annual <a href=\"http:\/\/www.masseyeandear.org\/for-professionals\/ophthalmology\/residency-program\/curriculum-didactics\/\">Chandler Conference<\/a>, I watched as hoards of drunk teenagers stumbled off the T, wearing a variety of novelty costumes with no protective eyewear. After surviving a week of flying solo on night float, dealing with dog bites and crazy glue in the eyes, I wasn&#8217;t sure how much more I could take. Luckily for me, the weekend itself stayed surprisingly quiet. We even got a chance to discover amazing bun rieu at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pho2000boston.com\/\">Pho 2000<\/a> out in Dorcester. Believe it or not, the Vietnamese bakeries in this little neighborhood carry some of the best French bread in the city &#8211; freshly-toasted and perfect for the duck liver p\u00e2t\u00e9 we got from Budapest. Yum! Meanwhile, we&#8217;ve also become hooked on Fox&#8217;s new series <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fox.com\/glee\/\">Glee<\/a>. Combining the music and melodrama of a young, diverse cast with the bitterness and sarcasm of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0528331\/\">Jane Lynch<\/a>, the show is refreshingly entertaining. It reminds me of our <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/SING!\">SING!<\/a> performances in high school, but with more pizazz and fewer Asians.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m not sure what I was thinking when I chose to cover the ED at Mass Eye &amp; Ear on Halloween weekend.
