still alive

So, I am still alive. Thanks to everyone for their concern regarding the possibility of colonies of anal bacteria overtaking my life, but I am still managing. Since then, I have received my lab results and there was nothing abnormal running around down there, but my throat swab was a little more interesting.

Neisseria or Moraxella... interesting.

So one would think the faculty would give you a way to distinguish between "normal flora" or gonorrhea. Thanks.

the circle of medicine

it is kind of like the circle of life, only more hateful and filled with irony. for example, I remember way back as an undergrad when I had to stick my hand up patient's rectum to get stool samples and disimpact them. believe you me, they hated it and I hated it. well, nothing says irony like a microbiology lab where I have to insert a six inch q-tip up in my butt to see the evil things that are growing between my cheeks.

imagine this bad boy going 'round and 'round

so yes, tomorrow, I get to see what evil lurks in the butts of men.
