No, my nose looks just the same as yesterday too! 😕
We'll ask the rest. Young white female in NAD presents with sudden-onset nose pain. Otherwise healthy and asymptomatic. What's your DDx and w/u?

Laundry going swish. Housemate cleaned up her mess in kitchen. 1 of 3 chopping boards currently available. All before 9am on a Saturday. I'm doing good!
 
I cannot believe that this guy whose wireless internet I'm mooching off of doesn't realize this yet. One of these days, I'm sure he'll realize that me and potential other people are stealing his bandwidth and he'll put up a firewall/passcode.

Wasn't yesterday Friday? I have you all beat. In honour of the Canadian Match Day, my dinner was a cheddar crab soup and filet mignon with a glass of Cabernet alongside, topped off with a mocha ice cream chocolate crust pie! 😀

I should have had that instead! But it was kind of late and I needed something quick.

Wow - I went in today to preview the slides for monday and there were about 200.
 
I just got back from the med school concert. Everyone (except the handful of Scramblers) knows where they're going except me! 🙁

I am now acutely aware of the fact that there are still 11 days and 12 hours until the damned results are posted!

I'm doing the same thing. Lucky for me though, there are actually two other people's wireless internet networks that I can access in my building! I am way too poh to pay for my own wireless internet.

I just now had a sudden craving for a Spicy TenderCrisp Chicken Sandwich at Burger King. I love those things. I think that is a big part of why I have gotten so fat. Anyway, I digress. So I get dressed since I was already in my pajamas and drive out there, only to be told that they are out of TenderCrisp Chicken Sandwiches. So then I was very frustrated, and went to Taco Bell, which was totally disgusting. 👎

Ha! I was totally thinkin' about makin' a run for the border tonight...but I just ended up driving home instead.
 
I am now staaahvin' and it's all you guyses' fault.

There's a Wendy's across the road with a late-night drive-in window, but they don't deal with you unless you actually pull up in a car. I know this because I've tried.

A car!! Yet another reason to look forward to residency.
 
6 more Lost episodes to watch and I'm all caught up. Perhaps tonight will be like last night when I went to bed at 8 am. 😱

I hear this. I generally don't get the cravings for those sandwiches, but I do get cravings for BK Chicken tenders quite a lot.

So just steal a car, geez. 😛

Yeah I am getting hungry now too...dangit all I need to go to bed!
 
So, I am going to tell you some interesting things about my day.

My second patient came in to fill a Vicodin Rx after discovering that half a bottle of Jack Daniels did not provide sufficient pain relief after having his wisdom teeth taken out.

One of my co workers snuck in her 8 week old shi tzu in her purse. We let it wander around the pharmacy and played with it. The security people never called and yelled at us.

A lady who was picking up a refill on her son's nystatin/triamcincolone cream told me that she had heard that steroid use could stunt growth. She then proceeded to ask if applying it to his penis would prevent it from ever getting any bigger.

WAs this the Numbers episode? Or was that last week's episode.

I know about the "Numbers" episode because the two guys who work next to me in lab could not shut up about it. I kept blurting out, "ummm hello." But they kept going on and on. Finally I yelled out, "F*ckers! I'm only on episode 8! Cut the ****." :laugh:

Are you serious? I have never tried this. What do they say, Sorry, you aren't in a car so we won't take your money?? 😕

I have tried this when I was visiting my ol' high school buddies back home in DC. If you walk up to the drive through, they won't serve you. And yes, it was a Wendy's.

I am perfectly serious. That was what they essentially said.

I actually had to walk back home, get my housemate to drive me and made a silly face at the girl from the back seat. My hunger knows no boundaries.

Maybe I could drag a metallic object across the sensor and set things in motion.

Yes, this week's was the Numbers episode. You have plenty of time to catch up since this week is a rerun. :meanie:

yes that message sucks. just keep hitting refresh and eventually the post will go through.

btw, double posting will help bump up your post numbers. keep on keepin' on! 🙂

I have a better solution. Why don't you let me have yours?


Well, by the time it gets there you probably will have found some other way to get the chicken sandwich.

:laugh: I heard a mother ask this once too - it wasn't in regards to triamcinolone though...I think she was actually asking it about circumcision. :laugh:
 
Yeah someone else in the lab had keane playing once. It was OK.

I'm totally out of touch with the music these days. Having been a fan of the 80's hair bands and the various metal bands, this alternative music revolution in the 90's really didn't agree with me much. You gotta be ****tin' me, did I just listen to a song that has NO guitar solo??? And I have no idea WTF is going on in 00's.

I've been a classical music junkie for the last few months though so now I'm really out of touch 🙁
 
bananaface said:
Guitar solos, hm? Did you ever listen to Mother Love Bone?

*tries valiantly to make a case for seattle bands*
Yes, I have listened to a few songs of theirs. I don't remember exactly who they are though since I don't own their album. Their guitarist was in Pearl Jam too, right? Still a bit too alternative sounding for me so it ain't my jive.

I was more into the following bands back in the day:
GNR
Def Leppard
Ratt
Pantera (RIP Dimebag)
Testament
Yngwie Malmsteen (the relatively recent Concerto for Electric Guitar in E-flat minor was interesting)
Metallica (the old metallica, not the new "sellout" metallica...and that thing they did with the symphony orchestra was not particularly impressive)
Cinderella
Warrant
etc. etc.

...ahh those were the good ol' days.
 
bananaface said:
Also, before I forget... I bought the Keane album. 😀
Did you really? Excellent choice! I have it playing now.
yaah said:
Who or what is Keane? More evidence that I have no clue about new music.
I sent you a .jpg of the CD cover, silly boy.

I just realized that the shopping list I made out yesterday is now worthless because it's Sunday and what's on sale at Safeway has changed for the week. No more berries! Rats! 🙁

Stone Gossard and Jeff Ament from Pearl Jam were in MLB. Heart is from Seattle too. But, I don't really care for their music. The scene here went through an overt "anti-riff" phase about 1990. You probably won't like anything out of here in that era.

Punk is still mainstream in the South Sound and always has been. You can go to the storage rental places on weekends and listen to bands practice. In Olympia, Denny's of all places has bands playing every night. Oly is strange. I had my White Stripes CD in my car when I went through the Jiffy Lube and the 50 year old lady working there started gushing about how much she loved that band. Alot of parents here ask their kids what music is good to listen to. Oh yeah, and there are alot of poh people. Only poh people wanna be rock stars. I'm totally not kidding. Many of them are too broke to buy beer on the weekends. I'm only peripherially related to the scene.

You liked Black Top Demon though. So there is hope for the local scene!
well liking something is one thing. being a fan and avid listener is different. at least that's the way it is with me.

Just watched it. It was very good. Too bad the next episode is a rerun. 🙁

I wonder how many episodes of Lost are remaining?

Numbers was the 18th, and I guess a typical TV season is 22 episodes (I don't know that for sure for Lost), so there would be about four left. I do know that there will not be a new one until April 13th!!! 👎

What? You're ****tin' me.

Noooooooooooooo.....you mean I gotta wait until well after Match Day to see if there is any more significance to those numbers??? 👎

Did you hear that in several lotteries, hundreds of people played those exact numbers?
 
I never knew you could do this...

Dude, you're gonna let me pwn you in a thread YOU created?

I have to admit that I am a formidable adversary though. My recent acquisition of a laptop with wireless internet has approximately doubled my powers.

I'm off to lab...cyas!
