I ran into this interesting post at the ever surprising FML. It's not just about bad things happening to other people.
However, dear med student, most of the time the tasks mentioned that you may order actually are done by nurses. I have yet (in my short career) to see any docs insert and seat a catheter or give an enema.
I don't doubt that some of my docs could do it, but I'd suspect they won't be as good as we are (wink).

A classic FML
Doc, you are the best. Please don't tase me, though! Enjoy!
Today, my boss's obese bully of a grandson had a seizure. Being the only physician around, I had to rush in to tend to him. Except it wasn't a seizure as such. My daughter had found my taser and used it on him. FML

You thought life was rough
Go have a look at FML and this critter story.
Oh.My.Heavens.
I'd be ready to run away...and quick!
That is all...stay tuned!

Signs of a dysfunctional workplace #10
Today, I was fired on my second day of work after a year and a half of unemployment. Apparently, my "tendency to solve problems instead of just accepting them made the other workers uneasy".

I really, really, really think the Hotel is heading this way somedays. (smacks head into desk)

Children and homework
Nothing like the 11th hour to get everything done before the end of the grading period.
Dahey thought he had Bubba reading everything he needed, and alas, Bubba has failed all his reading tests.
FML for me...ugh!
Taking a break and getting ready for work tomorrow...

Almost over...
Spring Break ends tomorrow for me and Bubba.
It's been an interesting week. Training, appointments and a couple of days of vacation thrown in. Overall, I'm happy, even if I didn't get a week to enjoy with Bubba or to have fun roaming hither and yon at whim like I'm apt to do on staycation.
I've been reading lots. Books, blogs, you name it.
Here's my reading list of the past few days, because tomorrow, it's back to being a grad student in the last part of the semester. No more breaks until May.
Fun books:
CSI by Anthony Zuiker talks about the show of the same name.
Brandwashed by Martin Lindstrom talks about marketing and manipulation. Ah, I get warm fuzzies thinking about my time in the marketing department as a contract worker bee. Such fun with product focus groups!
And even though it might not seem like fun, I really enjoyed Help! for Writers by Roy Peter Clark. I figure it can't hurt with those assignments coming up!
Blogs:
I like to read Doc Grumpy and Nurse K regularly. Two really different points of view, but I enjoy the randomness of things that happen, because that is my life, too.
Since I had time to meander, I also visited a few blogs I don't normally get to enough. Everyone needs Therapy is an interesting blog and I particularly enjoyed the post on March 18 about Paul Carr and drinking.
At Your Cervix is another blog I pop in and out of intermittently. I like this blog because the author is a student like me.
The snarky ones: FML, Apostrophe Abuse, and my all-time favorite, Passive Aggressive Notes, had a section on Tourist Terrorists in Spain. Just priceless. However, the best of the snarkiness category had to be this entry on the Daddle (with comment) in UHpinions. No, I'm not making this up.
Alas, I'm getting back to a delightful Hefeweizen and getting ready for the week. Can't wait until the next vacation.
Stay tuned...

Nuggets for April 29
Oh, the joys of homework, yet again. Soon, however, this semester will be a memory.
So what does an avalanched grad student do in her free time outside with her laptop? Surf mindlessly, of course, in glorious weather, with her favorite brew at hand. Ah...if only life could be so sweet everyday.
Here are a few places of note from my meanderings on the internet lately.
From the blogosphere...
Gotta love teachers, and I just absolutely positively appreciated this post CrankyProf put up the other day. Priceless.
I got hooked on FML because Maha's got a link to it on her blog. As a mother, I especially appreciated this recent post. Thankfully, Bubba cannot take glass to school.
Finally, I ran into this article about names of famous diseases via casesblog.
More later...back to work...
