Squeezing It All In

so, i've got lots of random things to say, i'll try to keep this short. plus mumbler's post call, so her brain is all cob-webbed at the moment.
  • re: previous post, mumbler is ok. it was just one day, and a good lesson learnt. hopefully she'll be a better doctor next time. right now, everything is fine (thanks uncle) though she's still trying to keep up with complexities of the treatment of leukemias.
  • call was pretty good last night. lots of admissions, and weird stuff that you get called for in the middle of the night. one nurse even made a most ridiculous statement ("so if you can't come now, shall i call the consultant to give the first dose?") which po-ed everyone . but at least the nurses in the grand ol' dame help you with the plugs and bloods first, and they're quite good at it. ho was nice, and a kindred spirit in terms of intended specialty. haha.
  • watched red cliff and the x files movie right before i started sip. red cliff was not bad, but was very disappointed with the x files. had been expecting more, since chris carter wrote, directed and produced it. a more detailed review will be up soon.
  • mumbler is happy that she set a pink plug today, given the misses of last night.
  • singing with the choir people again on national day was fantastic. ten years on, we still remember our parts, our lyrics, and where to breathe. we were so young then - a motley crew of schoolboys and schoolgirls who had 'toot' hairstyles and hemlines that fell below the knee. now we have a doctor, a psychologist, a financial analyst and a marketing exec in our gang with the rest graduating soon, and i'm happy to say that our fashion sense has improved. how far we've come!
  • i wanted to ask this question four years ago, but it was too hard. it isn't getting easier, but i'll need to know - do you still?
