Scooch Just a Little Further Down Again...That's Right.

i'm back in OBGYN for a few wks and i love it. i think i enjoy women's health so much because it's kind of like primary care plus. not only do you get all the heart, lung, kidney, brain stuff you get with men, but you ALSO get all the fascinating female organs, unique hormonal influences and processes, and the bun in the oven-ness. and i think women are piss-poorly educated on their bodies and its changes, birth control, diseases and treatments, and the whole bebe carrying/birthing/nursing process, so it affords me lots of opportunities to educate. which i love.

so as i search for jobs and get my resume out there, i'm really leaning toward OBGYN jobs. we'll see what i find. there are some limitations on PA's practicing in OBGYN, so i'm not yet entirely clear on what i can/would do. i'll know more soon, i'm sure. i've spent the last week re-writing, adding and removing bullets, hyphenating and un-hyphenating certain things on my resume. i'm about ready to scrap the whole thing and just trace my hand on a piece of paper, sign it and turn that in. then they would have my name and my glove size- what else could they possibly want?

between the way better weather and leaving psych and getting back into OBGYN and being with a cool doctor right now, i'm in a great mood. i have renewed energy to get stuff done and keep moving towards the finish line. one of my beloved classmates always says to us when we're feeling bogged down, "just keep swimming, just keep swimming" from "finding nemo." he's right. so now i'm going to swim back and add another hyphen. or maybe not. well, maybe. hmmm.
