Last week I had a lecture on shock, and the lecturer was hilarious. He was one of those people who made sure to keep you on your toes, and asked everyone questions. But he was truly gifted at making sure you didn't feel bad if you didn't know the answer, which I find is a rarity. As a "friendly guy from Chicago" he had rather interesting sayings, like saying "Ooh baby it's like downtown" whenever a treatment works effectively. It's probably a phrase that's going to stick with me forever.
I'm right in the middle of probably the worst two weeks. Finishing up on pediatric surgery was pretty interesting and I was finally able to see some unique pediatric surgeries, but the hours were really long. Not to mention having to scramble to put together a case presentation for today at the last minute, which was so stressful it gave my friend and me cramps and mini panic attacks for the entire day. Add that to overnight call tomorrow, and basically we're working 13 days straight, although Saturday night and Sunday morning isn't too bad hopefully. And yet I'm so relieved after getting that presentation over with I feel almost invincible. Which is a good feeling considering I just ran over a tree branch with my tire and I'm a little worried I've got yet another flat tire. :( Hopefully not. But right now I feel so happy it's like downtown.
