Yesterday sucked. SUCKED.
I woke up at 3:30 AM feeling terrible. Long, disgusting story short . . . for the next 4 hours, most of my extraneous water and electrlytes left my body. At first I thought I had been infected with salmonella after the grilled chicken I'd eaten the night before. Then I noticed the chills and body aches.

Monday, I begin my surgery rotation, specifically neurosurgery. It will last 4 weeks. After that, I begin general surgery. During the neuro portion I know I will have no call, and I've heard rumors that I won't have to work weekends. However, I also know that I'll have to study almost constantly.
I've spent the last week and weekend preparing for the complete upheaval of...

Nasty!
It was nice to meet you. You know I did have a point about pyometra-I like to think it doesn't occur in humans as often as it occurs in cats and dogs, thanks to good gynecological care...please tell me it isn't common!

me--"Despite our best efforts, the patient lived."
teacher--"I should warn you. This technique has a 0% success rate."
me--"Wait . . .what?"
teacher--"No patient has ever survived to discharge."
me--(flabbergasted)"Then why don't we just smother them instead of hooking them up to the expensive death machine?!?"

I am on my last week of Respiratory Care. No call. No patients. No homework. Just 4 hours of class 4 days a week. It's been heaven. The class is very informal, and there's a lot of joking around. I have developed a reputation as a smartass, and the teacher will occasionally go toe-to-toe with me in good fun. Today someone brought up the topic...

Last night in Athens was a blast. I got to see a some old friends, a few of which I haven't seen together in years. I also got to meet two of their significant others. Everyone got along, and before long we were all giving each other shit like old friends. After dinner and downtown drinks, one of the couples split off to get some...

the birthday cookout went well. there was plenty of beer and good food. the guest of honor was pleased. an impromptu water fight broke out and died before any of my shit got messed up. around 11, the party moved to our favorite bar. there was, of course, the obligatory drama, but eveything was resolved without too much fuss. by the end of the night,...

yes, the guns are still pointed at you . . . but admit it . . . it kinda turns you on.
i've calmed down a bit. it was the combination of friendly advice and blowing off steam.
tonight i'm hosting a birthday cookout for a friend. i have no idea how many people will show up, but it should be fun.
tomorrow i'm going to athens for another party. most of the old group has dispersed, and a few of us will be back in town....

Glad to hear you're feeling better. But you still have those guns pointing at us, you know 
i'm feeling a little better. if i can't solve a problem, i can at least saturate it in alcohol and hope for the best.
the following is not pleasant. however, it's all true.
drinking alcohol while in a nicotine fit is a terrible thing for me to do, especially in front of one of the docs who actually likes me. tonight the following things came out of my mouth while in a prolonged, harried rant.
"i fucking hate people."
"if you want sympathy, it's in the dictionary between 'shit'...

Having someone to adore and understand you is not all that great...It's ok, but after awhile it's just boring and will inevitably lead to you getting freaked out that someone knows you so well...It also, contrary to popular belief, is not a guarantee that you will have someone fuck you on a regular basis...
Point being, you must choose between the two, but your choice doesn't really matter...Sex is boring too...

A plastic dummy won't do - neither for a rectal exam nor for a girlfriend. So go out there and try to find someone who will fuck you and at least generally likes you and understands you an adequate amount of the time.
You went to medical school to have fun? I've never heard that one before. Medical school seems like hell, not fun.
"if you want sympathy, it's in the dictionary between 'shit' and 'syphilis'." -- I like that one.

so, i don't believe that i have strep throat. my doc now believes that i have a viral respiratory infection and the beginnings of bronchitis. since i'm susceptible to nasty respiratory infections and was hit hard with bronchitis last winter, she put me on antibiotics now.
