Note to Self

If you've been feeling poorly all day, revising following terms:

  1. Coprostasis
  2. Gagging
  3. Vagotonia
  4. Hypersialisis
  5. Intestinal auto-intoxication
  6. Halitosis
  7. Bloating
  8. Faecal impaction
  9. Faecaloid vomit
  10. Tenesmus
  11. Squirt diarrhoea

will help you none. Move on to fever or urinalysis or something equally nausea-friendlier.

My, what an unusual job you've chosen. I don't know whether "fascinated" or "horrified" best describes my reaction to the terminology; in any case I think I'll stick to programming :-)

An old American saying goes, 'Study hard, and one day you may become president.'

That has since been disproven - actually, the opposite seems to be true.

Well, I could have told you THAT before hand! Makes the immunology seem downright soothing, right? Right? Well, maybe that is a stretch. Hang in there, honey.

So, how IS your cat?
Oh and BTW, make sure to wash your hands before dinner...

Yuck. Yuck. Yuck.

Thank you for reminding me how much I love my job. There's no vomit.

My favorite is "squirt diarrhea". I'm going to try to stick that into regular conversation all weekend.

As DM said, "Thank you for reminding me how much I love my job." I would second the rest, but I've had to deal with vomit. Damn!

Hope the studying is going well. I miss you. Sending lots of love.

Beijos!
