Quote of the day:

"It looks like a crumb cake, but it's not!"
-Regarding a photo of a polyp ridden piece of colon. Trust me lady, there was no way that looked like something I'd consider eating.

Translational research course: done!

Today, I got poked by needles three times. Once for a blood draw, once for a tetanus booster, and once for a TB test. Needles scare me, which might make medicine a bad choice for me (my hope is I'll be fine if I'm the poker and not the pokee), but the nurses were wonderful with them and I got through it with minimum discomfort. One of them had been at it for 26 YEARS. That's longer than I've been alive. I wonder how long it will take me to get good at poking people with needles.
