Drugery

Sorry I haven't written anything.. I blame the fact that Kristen hasn't been here. She's been at her family's for that last 9 day without me. Talk about abandonment... and people wonder why I have issues. Well this last 2 weeks have been crazy... Switched attendings last week. Kind of like the mission. First companion was super good. Go get them work hard play hard be hard, 2nd companion wasn't so great. My new attending is a 62 yo IM specialist that has ~5-6 patients a day! That's right a day. With Dr. Baxter I was talking to 5-8 patients by myself first a day. I don't even talk to patients here at this new office. I know I know different strokes for different folks but this isn't much of a learning experience, unless I was supposed to learn not to be a IM specialist. Thanks Sara for the email sent to zachary.s.morrill@gmail yes it works, I got it, it was nice. So much I could write but I don't know how much of it is stuff Kristen wants to get out. Well Kristen and I were in charge of her sister's "gift" basket for their honeymoon, but since Kristen was so afraid of what I would put in it that she did it all herself, only she got caught up in the workings and the fact that their other sister had a baby right before the wedding so their basket wasn't too full. I was saddened. I will have to send some stuff to them after they get back home... this time I will take command and all that fun stuff. But sadly it's just not the same to open a basket on your wedding night and have a bright shiny vibrator there... =( I know some of you that might read this might not agree to such things, but as a student physician and as an LDS person ever girl needs to know her preferences. I even read that in a marriage councilor's ,that is LDS, marriage book. Besides who knows, they might enjoy learning things together... just ask your husband etc well anyway enough of that. Kristen is already going to upset that I shared that story. THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR LEAVING ME FOR OVER A WEEK I cleaned up a bit today since I hear I might be getting a visitor here tomorrow. It depends on what she brings home *wink *wink... secret code between Kristen and I... figure that one out. What else I did get to do a suture all by myself my last day of rotations with Dr. Baxter. A guy was running a woodchipper with an older neighbour and she forgot something about safety and mangled his finger. I put it together all nice and neat after cleaning it. 6 stitches in one finger at an oblique angle.. I did very well if I do say so myself. Just took me about 5 times as long as it would have Dr. Baxter. Not to say that Dr. Bobeck can't teach me things. I just don't like the low number of patients and the fact that the most I do is with the MA. She let me take her blood too, so I have gotten 75% on my sticks so far since I started medical school. Well I have to go back to cleaning I'll talk to you guys again.
