informal step 1 registry

I know that a lot of my readers have been saying to themselves, "the boards are only 3 months away, what am I going to get Dr. Fancypants when he takes step 1 of the USMLE on June 11th?" In order to allay fears and avoid the awkward conversation in which you ask me where I've registered, I decided that I should just tell you all what I want (need). Third year is just around the corner and I can't really picture myself without a Waterford Crystal Lismore Collection Double Old Fashioned rocks glass in my hand, a generous pour of Glenlivet dangling its sturdy legs inside:



I will need 5 of these, since 1 could go missing at a given time. As for the optional monogramming, feel free to mix it up: "BTG", "JTG", "VOG", or "DrF".

Alas, no Waterford Lismore man should be forced to adorn his personal bar with bottles, so I am also going to need a decanter. They come in various shapes, which is great, because Waterford is running a "collect all three" special. That way I can keep my Glenlivet, Bowmore, and Highland Park in their own special decanters.





[Sigh], on the off chance that I have company next year, I suppose I should be prepared for a guest who requests ice in his/her scotch. There you go again, Lismore collection, anticipating my every need:

Waterford is OK but those with a true appreciation for the finer things choose Baccarat.
