Today, I found out that I have to go to Baltimore next month to meet with representatives from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cms.hhs.gov\/\">CMS<\/a> and discuss the details of implementing the grant.  Never been to Baltimore before.  When I was finishing law school, I applied for a fellowship at Johns Hopkins but wasn&#8217;t accepted.  I know the best crab cakes are supposed to be had in Baltimore.  And it&#8217;s the city where Edgar Allen Poe did most of his writing.  Baltimore in December doesn&#8217;t sound exactly charming, but it should be interesting nonetheless.  My only concern is that I&#8217;d like to bring two nurses with me for the trip.  After Miami, I&#8217;ve realized how much easier it is to travel with two people, especially when there&#8217;s a flight involved.  I&#8217;ll have to see what I can negotiate with my employer.<br \/>\nThis is too cool.  <a href=\"http:\/\/news.bbc.co.uk\/1\/hi\/entertainment\/arts\/4019783.stm\">Kevin Kling<\/a>, a writer and storyteller from Minnesota, is profiled on the BBC.  You may have heard Kevin on NPR from time to time, where he is a frequent contributor.  Kevin is an artist with a disability, but his disability is the least interesting thing about him.  I shared a table with him at a recent fundraiser and I listened to some of his stories about visiting Turkey.  Kevin is a sophisticated observer of human behavior and his stories are so much fun to listen to because he knows how to play off the audience&#8217;s emotions.  If you&#8217;re in the UK and have an interest in storytelling, you should really try to go see him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I recently wrote about a multi-year grant that my employer was being awarded.
