I'm tired...
Monday
Today was bacteriology / micro. Some chick showed us basically what so and so looks like on a plate. How they can tell, I have no clue... I guess by the fact that it grows on so and so a plate. But then things are more obvious like salmonella being black. I mean, I should know some of this, but at this point I'm clueless and as a doctor I don't really need to know what grows on what plate. I have micro / a comp to tell me that stuff. Geeze... It even tells you what antibiotics to use. Back in the day when things weren't specialized... Geeze! Not even the micro people have to make their own loops and plates anymore. Ew... I feel nasty though. It stinks in there. One plate she whiffed in our faces cause of a distinct smell. H. flu. Mouse like? Ew... So now I'm smelling all that, all the time... I feel dirty...
I was seriously offended... So this girl who is now done with Path. She was saying how Julius is so and so and he likes the ladies. So no use in a guy getting all buddy buddy with him. This chick says, he's Filipino. A lot of Filipinos are bisexual. Really? That's the first I've heard.
I looked up LJ and the like on Wikipedia. They have a link to all this LJs of people who have died or are in jail. That's freaky! I told sparkyboy and durlxnemesis that in that event I want my LJ, etc deleted... Well not deleted... Maybe made private or something. 7500centfish knows the password. Lol. Even sparkyboy knows one of my passwords. God... That's so wrong...
Haha... So I'm sitting next to 2 KCHC alums. One just moved, making it free for me to type. He said he saw... Her and she is still with him. Lol. Wonder what she's doing. I hope to see her again. I like her. I wonder how I'd be if I saw him... Hopefully not weird, which I think it will be. But seriously. I am so over him so stop asking!!! / Say what's her face is a bitch! I'd actually consider her to be my friend!
Today
So the Q is... Do I want to go to Altar Boyz so much, I'd be basically paying 150 to see it? I'm not sure... Like, in prev entry... Do I even want to offer and be let down yet again? Last time I did this, with The Phantom Of The Opera... Sure there were people who appreciated it, but then I get comments saying I wouldn't have gone, toured the city instead, yet enjoyed / falling asleep... You know what, I'm not gonna pay anymore. This time. Why even offer to... Like I said I'm not paying, but I'm sure someone would think of going if someone else was. Is it my naïveté to think someone might actually be interest in what I like? Or like always, am I gonna be the odd one out?
Moving on. I saw my first real autopsy. I mean, I did see a few in Dominica, but really... History is... Some guy, 47, presents with abdominal pain, around umbilicus and radiates to both sides. Constipation, difficulty urinating for 5 days. N/V. Uh... I think he also had a fever on presentation, hypotension, etc. Only positive PE was the abdo pain, non guarding. Was their rebound? CT... Shows free air. He perfed. So they do an exploritative laparotomy. Nothing. (They did re-dx his, but from the path stand point all we knew is he was obstructed and perfed.) So we go in there. Dr. Bertoni... She's like... A really classy lady. Suits, fancy hair and make up always. Then to see her in scrubs hacking into a guy. Yeah... It was weird. At a point, I got my hands in there, like a good medical student I retracted, pulled. At one point my gloves were dripping with blood! haha... It sounds all exciting. But... In the end, God... It's weird. We covered his face. Yet, I still had the urge to like comfort him. Pat his leg. I mean, just to even touch someone undergoing a procedure can be comforting. We he was wrapped up, placing him back in the fridge. Seeing 2 other bodies wrapped up. It's too depressing for me. I couldn't deal with it. Anyway, long story short. We eviscerated him, opened up all the tubing. No perf. Dr. Bertoni later called the resident. Necrotizing fascitis. He basically came in already in shock. So I guess even without surgery, which a suspected perf entailed, I don't think he would have survived. Sutured the guy closed. I did a horrible job, but at least I approximated well. The tech guy or whatever said not to worry, they're just gonna cut him open and resew him in the funeral home.
Worked on my PowerPoint last night. At this point I don’t even know if I'm gonna have to present it. Dr. Bertoni isn't gonna be in on Friday... Anyway, at one point I wrote Nibickibak, lol. With the exception of C and A... Each letter is the letter to the right on the keyboard. ;p;!
OMG... So we were going thought this guys chart. I mean, you can go aw... how cute, you newbie... But a guy who is basically at my level and not know what lopressor is? I mean, I didn't know the generic name, but to not even recognize it as an antiHTN. Colostomy = colonizing... Come on!
Odds and ends...
Walking out of Duncan Donuts I practically bump into this guy, who looks at me, then continues walking. I mean, yeah I almost bumped into him. But... He looks familiar. Dr. Makartchuk!?! What's he doing here?
Whilst in Duncan Donuts... Flip cashier guy starts talking to me in Tagalog. Ugh... Ugh in the sense that I don't speak it and I really wish I did.
That's it really. Don't know what I'll do now. Finish my PPt?
