Isn't it just pleasant to wake up to the smell of boiling flesh?

I'm going with no. WHAT do you do or WHERE do you live that that's a morning smell?

[poorlil_richboy]

I don't live there.

Well, that's a lie, it might be considered that I do, but I work in a morgue -- specifically, in this case, the graveyard shift.

I was catching a nap in one of the back rooms when one of my colleagues had to boil the skull in order to get a better look at the entry wound? It's not the greatest thing in the world to wake up to.

[whattingawhat]

Yeah...I can imagine it would be. Are you studying to be a medical examiner or just a job for job's sake?

[poorlil_richboy]

I'm studying to be one. It's my second year in, so -- that's around the time you start looking for those ever important internships.

That's disgusting.

[poorlil_richboy]

Isn't it? I mean it's one thing to have to deal with it when you're awake, but when you're asleep?

I thought I was going to be sick.

[its_phonetic]

I'm surprised you weren't.

And unabashedly curious as to why.

[poorlil_richboy]

I intern in a morgue?

[vivo_per_ardua]

Please tell me this has nothing to do with your sisters.

[poorlil_richboy]

Only in the sense that it has something to do with their jobs.

I was taking a nap in the morgue, and someone happened to need to boil the skin off a skull in order to get a better look at the entry wound.

It was a bit of a rude awakening.

[vivo_per_ardua]

...Oh, that is just disgusting. I have seen my share of charred remains but waking up to that smell? *shudders*

[poorlil_richboy]

It's not charred. Boiled. There's a distinctively different smell.

And it's kind of sad that I know that.
