And a cherry on top

After not having written for over 2 years, I was suddenly overcome by an urge to write something about my day.  That's how awesome my day was. To start, I had to deliver news of two different cancers today.  It is not a rarity that I deliver bad news in my field, but twice in one day is a bit of a bad streak; although, from what I am told, these things come in threes, so I'm like a spider in my web waiting for a unsuspecting victim #3 right now.  It's not a rarity, but today's constituents were just outliers. First, was a patient who need to have had her test 15 years ago, but refused and refused, until finally, got hauled in, and wouldn't you know it, had a nasty mass.  While trying to get around it, get biopsies, assess it, the family member and ride was, I guess, stewing in the waiting room about how long the wait was turning out to be, and when was finally shown to the patient's bedside, engaged in a raging rant, accused us of running a sham busines...

I wish I were engulfed in flames...

My friend Deepa is so cool! Last year she met David Sedaris and he laughed at her dirty humor!! Imagine my excitement when she rang me and suggested I go with her to this year's series - I'd appreciate it more than her husband - and it would be the first time we'd see each other in 5 months! (Goddamned suburbs) I was coming up with witty things to say all day. XXXXX!!! Fail!!! We went up smiling stupidly like little girls about to ask a boy out, and couldn't think of anything better to say than "It was just my birthday." He said, "And how old did you turn?" And we made it a million times worse by answering "How old do you think?" Ugh. Lame-o. We didn't interest Mr Sedaris in the least, not even for 20 seconds. He was so done with us. He signed our books, and even before he was finished he was already looking towards the snaking line for the next [hopefully] more interesting fan. To add insult to injury, when told that I was n...

Mommy wars

I have not written in a while, mostly because I've been uninspired. To write something good, you have to be in the midst of some sort of angst, I'm convinced of that. Otherwise, everything sounds canned. What did I have to anguish about? I like my job, I love my kid, I hate the neighborhood - but how much can I really whine about that? All equals lack of posts. But something happened last week that ignited my passions more than the average bit. And forgive me if I have discussed this before, and am repeating myself. So, I'm at the hospital rounding. I run into a fellow young doc from my company. Turns out, he just had a baby. We're both sitting over open charts, pens in hand, making co-worker smalltalk in low tones. Oh, is it your first baby? Oh, it's your third baby! Oh, how very fun, congratulations! Is your wife also physician? No, he says, she is in finance. She was working her tail off with the first two, and never saw them, so now, with the thi...
