Thanks for the heads up.

Just as an FYI, I've been asked to present at our mental health center on 10/21 from 8am-12pm on ADHD.

We have a collaboration with a medical school about an hour from here and are trying to get accredited as an internship site.

We have an intern, whom I havent met yet. I also don't know if my colleague will be presenting or not.
If so, we'll have to touch base, as I'm certain my evidenced based way of doing things is not the way they do it at his office.

Either way it should be fun (for me).

Whata bet that no one's ever used "stfu deal with it" at an inservice (unless it was me...lol) ?
