Sorry I disappeared last week–I was in Germany, and well, my time was not my own, so something had to give and it was FHO. But I’m back, in town for the whole week, and ready to make the slog to catch up on everything that got dropped while I was away. So let’s get right to it:

Registration ends March 16th, so please spread the word. The more forensic nurses on the Hill, the greater the impact. Plus, DC in the spring? Outstanding.
