Yay for matching somewhere! And yay for puking three times today (so far)!

And no, I haven't been drinking.

Are you puking because of the probe the aliens put in your esophagizzle?

Also, where is your number 1 choice for residency located?
 
I matched too. But I'm not puking.

Congrats!! on the matching, not the puking.

Just at lunch today we were discussing the need for an OTC anti-emetic.
 
benadryl et al. maybe
 
Yay, congrats guys!

Speaking of the match. We've got an M4 on our team, and the students don't think he should have to come to work on the Friday after the Match. We just can't figure out how to ask our senior to see if he can get the day off, since he'll also be on call on Saturday. Anyone have any ideas?
 
Very few of us are working Friday... don't know how you could ask for it. I would ask for myself...

They're liquids in old-fashioned little brown glass bottles on the top or bottom shelves of the drugstore with all the other stuff nobody ever uses anymore. I seem to recall Emetrol is cherry-flavored.

Number one is actually here (weird, I know) but if I don't get that it will likely drop to like #8 or 9 honestly.

That's funny, I was having the same conversation about OTC antiemetics the other day before I was even sick. They might have to make it rectal though so people can keep it down (or up, as the case may be).

That's hilarious. I have never heard that. You think it was written about a real person named candida? Or was it a joke? Maybe I should listen to it again.

If you want I can change my tagline to be "Fungi? Don't exist."

Well, he never made jokes about it on his variety show. But it wouldn't have gone over very well in 1970. Heck, how many people know what candida is now?
 
The potential for OTC anti-emetic abuse is high, mostly with frat-boys. Think how much Jager you could "pound" if you pre-loaded with anti-emetics!

I'm on call tonight at Froedtert... anyone want to come hang out? I want to be distracted, and not by work.

That sucks that you'll be post-call on Thursday for the match. Get some sleep! I was on call for peds last night and my intern let me leave at 7:15. She's kickass.
 
12 hours. Someone save me from myself.
 
I'm sending good vibes your way....hope you can find the time sometime today to post your results!
 
My number one, Christiana Care in Newark, Delaware!!!!!

I'm ecstatic. And sleepy.

Good Job and Congradulations. Coming to a hospital near me!How does it feel to finally go somewhere far away from The Prowler?


So what did you match into? Acupuncture, Homeopathy or Chiropractic medicine?

Once again Congratulations!!!!
 
and the winner is....
University of Minnesota!

:banana:

Which makes me very happy. The program is great, the only downside is it is the one place I could have gone which will actually be COLDER than Milwaukee.
 
The beard looks good on you though. 🙂

Why didn't anyone recognize me today? When I was standing behind the table, people kept coming up to me and telling me their names. Then they'd take a closer look and go, "Oh, Xandie, I didn't recognize you." Literally happened like 15 times today. What the heck, kids?
 
wait wait wait.....does this mean that you are really gonna leave us?? But but ...who will come and smack me on the back of my head when i am least suspecting it??

Congrats!!!!:hardy::hardy:
(maybe we will all follow you to delaware a year later)

I recognized you and I barely know you. And it's been almost 2 years since I can think of having seen you, and you do look pretty different than you did during the basic science years.
 
Congratulations everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Happy Yeaster everybody! I wish I could give everyone yeaster eggs. Mmmmm... yeaster eggs.
 
Xandie does in fact know the whole story, but I'm not posting someone's personal details on the internet. (Find me in person and I'll tell you all about it)... it might be hard to find me though, since I'm done with school now and am about to abscond to the East Coast. A-ha!

Meh. That's ok, I don't actually really know who she is so I'm not really that interested in her story anyway.
 
Hey samenewme, I think I saw you in the Tonkens today? I was the shady looking guy on the elliptical. I wasn't really sure if it was you so I didn't want to say anything in case I was wrong, I thought it would look stupid going up to a total stranger and saying, "Hey samenewme, I'm yeasterbunny!"

It was probably me! I split my long run into two chunks and did one 11ish and one around 6:30 p.m.ish. I will look for shady looking guys next time I am there!
 
So, I got my call schedule for next year (for the entire year, yes)... I'm on Thanksgiving and New Year's Eve, off Christmas and Easter... I have three weeks of vacation (in September, January and May), and then 5 days around Christmas. I like this having my schedule in advance thing!

what if one of your fellow residents pops out a child and wants maternity leave?
 
Then she gets it. What's your question, exactly?

That would be nice to know your schedule earlier than the first day of each month! Funny that you got both of the Christian-centric holidays off, but are stuck working the secular ones that you would actually celebrate.
 
I found that slightly ironic, as well. I am on call Good Friday though, so there's always that...

Luckily, also, we only work one Thanksgiving (I think), so I'll get mine out of the way now. I'm all for delayed gratification. Usually.
 
Can we not say "pops out" for something like childbirth? I'm on OB/Gyn right now and I think that it's totally inappropriate.

I prefer "squirts out."
