I used to have three kitties, but the ex took my other baby (Annabelle) when he moved out, then got a new kitten (Bo). And more pictures!

Yep, that's the ex's foot. I think the cat had some CN I deficits.
 
I'm too sick to see patients today. I got sent home.

i see myself being like Klinger in M*A*S*H*....always finding ways to make people think I'm nuts and that I have to get sent back. think that'll work 3rd year? especially on surgery?

You may be too sick to see patients, but I know you're not too sick to make me a sammitch.

I like mayo and mustard, in case you were wondering.

and make sure it's not lackin' any meat...cause that's what REAL WOMEN NEED!! </quiznos>
 
My sammitches come complete with influenza!!

And also, how dare you ask me to make you a sammitch during Passover... unless, of course, you meant a Matzo sammitch?

Sorry, I know as much about Jewry as I do about glomerular disorders. Are you telling me that your religion forbids you from making me a lovely sammitch?

That's funny, because most religions make it expressly known that the ladyfolk should make men sammitches whenever they want one.
 
Only on Passover can I not handle food called "chumatz", such as leavened bread, an integral component of said sammitch.

Tortilla wraps are sammitches. And, also, if you have the tortillas and the meat in one part of the room and the cheese in another and make THE MAN put it together for hisself, you don't have a kosher problem, right? Especially if that room is the "Grocery store".
 
I am not sure about the Pesadic status of tortilla. I will investigate.

Additionally, I just put in an appearance on campus. You all missed it.

Whoa, whoa, whoa! This is really getting out of hand here. Next thing you know, you crazy broads will be talking about voting yesterday! :laugh:
 
I think I shall burn my bra in protest... wait a minute, I like this bra. Nevermind.

well, should you decide to burn your over-the-shoulder-boulder-holder, take it off first. Can't scorch the sweater puppies!

I think you'll have about as much luck getting THE MAN to make his own sammitch as you will getting him to stop oppressing minorities, conspiring to keep things secret, and plotting his overall world domination.
You may, however, be able to stick it to him.
 
I can verify that Xandie did NOT burn her bra.

Once again, Prowler with the running newsticker. You're like the Anderson Cooper of highly personal female news. 😉
 
In all reality, I could have been wearing a different one. Technically. But I wasn't. Definetely had to wear one, though. Can't be scaring the pre-meds like that. They have gentle souls.
 
Can't be scaring the pre-meds like that. They have naive souls.

Fixed for you. True story: I refuse to talk to pre-meds this year because I'm scared that what I say may drive them like lemmings off of a cliff. Thanks, Path department!
 
Their souls could be both gentle and naive... I suppose. Don't tell Marc though, he'll misinterpret that as "tender and tasty" and eat them all.
 
Ash: I met your little sib today. And bring on the mini-eggs.

i'm becoming more and more enthused about heat/burn-related torture these days, actually.
 
Honestly, I'm not entirely sure how this thread got on the topic of my breasts... that does seem to happen to me quite a lot, though. Odd. *shrug*

gee, i wonder, Miss "i'm gonna burn a bra."

all you have to do is mention something remotely related to women and Prowler gets all excited like an 8th grader.
 
I'm mad 'cause I'm bored. And I'm going out of town this weekend, and I haven't even packed. But I'm still bored. And my voice is extra froggy.

Did I at least irritate you out of boredom for a minute?

Okay, so you could make tea.
Paint your toenails.
Take a nap (my favorite)
Put silly braids in your hair.
Turn everything inside out before you pack it.
Make fun of Mark. Starting with spelling his name "Mark".
Make fun of Prowler.
Make fun of Indo.
Tell everyone you and I had a Kaplan/Examkrackers smackdown at the premeds panel discussion, even though we really didn't.

That's it. I'm out.

Oh, and just for perspective, you could do what I'm about to do and listen to a Mattson kidney lecture. BOOOOORRRRED has new meaning!
 
Oh, Dr. Mattson... he's the one who won't face the students and whip snaps the cord of the laser pointer, right? Awesome stuff.

My nails are painted, unfortunately.
Sleep is probably what's happening next.

sleep is for pansies.
 
Pansy and proud.

Mattson faced us, I think. Has this very soothing Mr. Rogers voice. The cord of the laser pointer tends to tangle up and then the tangle leaps after him like some sort of funky little rat. I've jumped a couple of times thinking there was a creature running across the floor.

I DEFINITELY need more sleep.

well, it is the breast topic in the whole wide world.


More like a 10th grader, honestly.
 
Aren't bras like 30 dollars each?

NOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!

Beware of him, and his exam questions. I think a rather large percentage of our class failed that exam.

Which is why our class worked ourselves like dogs learning all about the kidney (even though it was a different prof teaching last year) and ended up being thoroughly overprepared for the questions we were actually given.

Sorry, M1s. You guys are probably going to hurt a little bit when you take Mattson's exam. 🙁
 
Mattson is to M1 renal phys as Becker is to M2 renal path.

A good resource for his questions would be his exam questions from 2004 and 2005 (but not before), as well as the chapter he wrote in Physiology Secrets. In addition to the standard calculation type questions, he will also ask some random questions from his class "notes".

So that is how good doctors are made?
 
Me = clinic this afternoon, then home to Kalamazoo for the first time in 9 months. I could have made a baby in that time... gotta put it in perspective, folks. Whee!

Small world. Me=sitting in front of my computer and doing random housework this afternoon, then off to Marshall, Michigan to visit the sibling in-laws. I couldn't have made a baby in the time since I was out there, but I probably could have baked a few cakes.

I think I would have liked becoming a physician back in the 19th century when everything was cured by visiting a health spa and you learned this through an apprenticeship.

Allowing a gaggle of PhDs to educate us on how to become MDs seems a bit like letting the inmates run the insane asylum.

Of course not. But it is a good way to needlessly stress out medical students.

I'm on psych right now, and I'd like to report that the asylum is in fact run by the inmates. In fact, right now all of my daily work is completed, and now I am just sitting here waiting for the first admission to come my way. Which with my luck will be around the time I'm supposed to leave, and then I'll have to stay late. Which will really interfere with my plans for this weekend, which include going to Madison to visit some old friends. I will likely suffer from some form of ETOH poisoning.

And there is no way I could have made a baby since I've seen them last, since I don't have the prerequisite uterus. Or breasts (like Xandie).
 
A) I'm glad you're all budding OB/GYNs.

B) Where are you on psych? I was at County... good times.

C) Very small world! My mom plays in Marshall's summer concert band. Look for the red-headed version of me (slightly older, naturally) playing flute.
