My stethoscope isn't engraved either. I wouldn't mind getting my name engraved on it. Makes it less desirable to "walk away", if you know what I mean. My uniforms are due to arrive today. Still...

Congratulations, Smash! When I read your post, I instantly got butterflies in my stomach. My mail doesn't come until 3 p.m. which seriously sucks! I may have to drive through the neighborhood and...
