Enter insanity...: A day on call
http://deadrocketcow.blogspot.com/2014/04/a-day-on-call.html
Tuesday, April 22, 2014. A day on call. Over here is a lady who can only communicate by sticking out her tongue. She has reverted to her child hood state and won't respond to questions in English. "Saco la lengua! You command, because who knows if she's still alive? Over there is a 15 year old, undergoing a tracheostomy cap trial. He has a big indentation in his head on the side his bone was removed in an effort to save his life. His crime? I can see you in the face of your 95 year old aunt. She gets...

Enter insanity...: September 2013
http://deadrocketcow.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 12, 2013. I still hate presentations and other thoughts. I am close to the end of this three month Pediatric Neurosurgery rotation in this here, mid-western state and as such, I have a presentation to work on. This presentation is due on Monday. Yes. So, of course, I'm blogging. Have something to say. You know, like that person. In my [humble] opinion, those that have the most to say, usually know the least. However, my co-resident here is pretty much the exact opposite. Assertive...

Enter insanity...: Catching up
http://deadrocketcow.blogspot.com/2013/07/catching-up.html
Friday, July 26, 2013. So, it seems that almost 8 months have gone by since I last posted. How did that happen? At the start of the year, I was half way through my second year of residency and was tired of being at the bottom of the totem pole. Woe was me. Now, I am three weeks into my third year and still feel like I am at the bottom of the totem pole (surprise! But it's just three months. Right? Things I need to do by the end of Sunday. 1 Call my parents. 2 Log my OR cases. Until the next time. Subscri...

Enter insanity...: January 2013
http://deadrocketcow.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 01, 2013. New Year and such. Tired of being at the bottom of the totem pole. Of always having to grin and bear it. Of always being in the wrong, always having to apologize, always being the one who does the stuff that nobody else wants to do. Hey, the surgical PA is not going to be around for the next 3 weeks to write the H and P's on the pre-op patients or write the chief resident's post-op orders.". That's ok. We have drc.". But what about when the surgical PA leaves? New Year and such.

Enter insanity...: December 2012

Tuesday, December 25, 2012. Sunday, December 09, 2012. The regular milk conspiracy. That you can add to your already hyper-flavor infused drink. You are handed your highly anticipated cup, which, depending on your selection, may require the addition of some cream-age. Then.you take a look at the dairy that is displayed and you are flabbergasted. You turn to the barrister with a sheepish grin on your face and ask "OK, where are the hidden cameras? Are you born with the wrong set of taste buds? Champagne a...

Enter insanity...: Third year - it continues
http://deadrocketcow.blogspot.com/2013/11/third-year-it-continues.html
Tuesday, November 12, 2013. Third year - it continues. So continue the blessed rotations of third year. In any case, I have A LOT of free time on my hands. Incidentally, the two attendings I am working with during this rotation are away at a conference this week. So. I get an additional week off. The downsides to this rotation. 1 Way too much free time. 2 Very bad phone reception at this place I'm staying. 3 I know no one here. 1 Way too much free time. 2 Did I mention I have way too much free time?
