i am on a jim and pam high right now and not even caring that i haven't studied for my practical exam i have to take tomorrow. i have become such a lazy student. i used to put a few hrs in every night even when i didn't want to. not so much now, my friends. i came home tonight, made a luxurious italian dinner for my husband and drank a little (glutton's lot of) wine and am now watching "the office" and basking in the clever risk-taking new character developments and camera shots they're taking. and tra-la-la all the lovey loveness going on between jim and pam.
i've been in a good mood this week. i really like obgyn a lot. i love not only the prenatal care and labor/delivery but everything from the first pap smear to postmenopausal issues to gyn pathology, everything. i've been officially in "ob" and i'll be starting "gyn" on monday, so will have more time in the OR. i could really use more time in OB. this whole rotation, only 4 wks long, could be much longer and i'd be fine with it. i'm hoping in family med/ER i'll have more obgyn opportunities. most of the male PA students would gladly trade me some of their obgyn time. they are all dreading it. i do feel fortunate as a female practitioner/student as the patients are clearly more open to me, ok w/ my presence than they are with the men. while i've never been pregnant myself, i think i have a little more cred in my empathy than the 23 y/o frat boy med students saying things like, "so, are your ankles always this swollen?"
it's almost the weekend!
