MolASSes

So, in finishing up the up what has happened this week...

As it turns out, on Wednesday there was yet another birthday. The birthday boy's name = Robeson. Happy quarter century man!.! I suppose that I should put up one of the pics that I took of you that night during the goodness that was Grilled Teriyaki! Yum... the white sauce saturating each greased soaked morsel of meat and rice. How can one go wrong? As Mike put it "I think this is my first time here before midnight". Well, enough from the alcoholic. Oh, wait, there is another thing that the alcoholic stated [ok, maybe not really alcoholic, but sometimes you wonder where he comes up with what comes out of his mouth - haha], which was "ohhhh, thaynk-a-ewe"... which is my best attempt at phonetically spelling out the chinese/japanese-ish accent that he put on for our asian waitress. Not so much socially sound, politically correct, or alliterated with a filter. But, what can you do other than emberASS him.

So, after that lovely ordeal we went out to Delaney's for the dynamic duo of pint night and McFly. It was good times, listening to the 80's cover, but I had to call it an early night since work duties were pressing from the wee hours of the morn to come. During the evening, I was weraing my new volcom-stone shirt, green and long sleeved, which seemed to be a big hit. I suppose that I can thank April and mom for that. But only so much in that they helped pick out the size!!

There was one more thing about Monday that I did not mention... one of the cases that we did in the OR was a bilateral breast reduction. This went really well, and was the second one that I have helped to do. Basiclly it was Dr. Friedman take one breast and Garry take another. Of course I was given the smaller one, but it was plenty big if you ask me. [duh... otherwise she probably wouldn't be getting the durn reduction now would she... think mcfly... think!]. So, this time I was able to complete the deepitheliazation all on my own and did some scoring and resecting of the tissue. Although still very much a novice... or below novice; like subnovice or something, I feel that my skill with the blade and suturing are improving and spedding up... and when I say speeding up, I mean going from molASSes in January to maybe sometime a little later in the year... you know, a good late February MolASSes or something, possibley an early to mid-March MolASSes, but definatly not a May or June MolASSes. To reach that level of molASSes fluidity [unviscosity] would be a glorious day indeed. In fact, Dr. Friedman is probably somewhere around August MolASSES found on the hot side of the planet Mercury during its summer solstice in the middle of a big solar flare. Well, beating that to death, it went well and I am enjoying this plastics rotations quite a bit... which leaves me at the age old question... 'what next?'

As far as school goes in other areas, such as application stuff... so far I ahve just had interview offers with Orlando and Temple... which reminds me I have to confirm those and start setting up dates. We'll see. Those are for ER and I really have not heard back from plastics programs other than secondary applications... yuck!
So, the city of Disney love vs. the city of Brotherly Love.... touch choice... but hopefully there will be, as yet otherwise stated, 'more to come'...

And a bid adeau for the time being and try to get to the necessities of the day... oh what a day, this FRIDAY the THIRTEENTH of OCTOBER, 2006.
