  1. Nothing. Strangely enough, it all turns out well.
  2. And cheesy... it was second grade, back of the school bus. He was skerrid of such a forward thinking girl And squeak... I know how it's spelt. My choice? I would have MANY choices/desires. One is to visit the Rose!!! I really, really, really, really want to see a play directed by the author hisself! Another (not a SC moving comment!!) but to see Dec 25, 0000 and be THAT obstetrician!
  3. Sci Fi clip If you had a tardis, where would you travel to?
  4. Seriously?! Not to downplay the knowledge or skills of the EMS, cuz sometimes the can be better than the docs..... but seriously, your comment is foolish. Even an EMT-P is under two years. So... you're saying that if you have to go back for the two years, you might as well be in for 11-13 years (the 4yrs for an undergrad, the 4yrs for med school and the 3-5yrs for residency.)
  5. Happy Birthday! I hope this year is kind and adventurous. . . . and WITHOUT injury to you or your loved ones! May you have wonderful experiences this whole year long - patients that you feel honored to assist, friends that make you feel deserving of the companionship, love that makes you feel cherished, and stories to make you go "HOLY SHIT, BATMAN! THAT WAS KEWL!"

    Tripe

    I love Pho... but not with the tripe.

    Tripe

    There's only two organ meats that I like to eat.... liver n' onions is one.... intestines are not number two.
  8. Chris, You've not only tried the traditional recommendations, you've gotten second opinions. You went to the "experts." You've tried non-western medicine methods. You are just trying to make EVERY effort to learn and cope with your pain. That's not asking for pity. You asked for WISDOM! You're trying to look outside the box. I wish that I could help you. But... as an ob-gyn, my pain management techniques deal with a very different pain (and one with a VERY different outcome... it's amazing what you will cope with when the outcome is a new cherished life....) My advice though: KEEP ASKING! Ask your doctors. Ask your friends. Ask anyone, cuz someone might have the answer that works. It doesn't hurt to ask.
  9. It does sound like less than stellar service. However, in this restaurant, is the tip divided between multiple staff members (waitstaff, bus service, kitchen service) and did your lack of tip "punish" them as much as her for her poor timing on the break. Also... I would be MOST annoyed with the management. Not the waitress. He/She should have taken the time to make the customer happy and THEN deal with employee issues at a later time. (just curious.... was it in KC? and where?)
  10. YEAH AMBER!!!! as if you thought you couldn't?!
  11. Ellie I saw this card the other day that seems like a perfect card written by a young girl to her Fairy Godmother: (I did add some things... ) But.... there is no "real" Fairy Godmother, so instead I wish you a lifetime of love, friendship and challenges. Make each day a wonderful adventure! Karen
  12. Is Deadpool a super "hero"? And can a female be deadpool? These are deep and confusing questions... -or how about the White Queen of the Hellfire club... but hmmmmmm she's wasn't really a hero then... but she is now....
  13. Happy (belated) Birthday, LisaMarie!!!
  14. Mike my heartfelt condolence Karen Bordson
  15. Sorry that I'm late! Happy belated Birthday!!! I hope it was a GREAT day and that you enjoyed time with your "finds"! May this year be healthy and .... memorable. I wish you well.
  16. Christoph You do know that I can't make you happy. She can't make you feel unhappy. This is ALL ABOUT YOU. You need to make yourself feel good with who YOU are. You need to make this VERY SHORT life worth something to YOU. I know it's hard after a breakup... "what did I do" and "I don't understand" are VERY common statements. But, what if you didn't do anything wrong and what if the only thing to understand is that she's not "the one." Time will give you the answers... until then, go make some jumps or relax or even as squeak said "HDFU" (but DON'T get jaded and bitter)
  17. Medical ethics state that you can mention generalities, but no identifying characteristics. No names, date of birth, social. . . nothing that can tie back to a "real" identity. Some could argue (and do) that a "good doctor" won't mention anything about work. Part of me wishes that I could agree with that... but I don't. Doctors are people too and some do want to share their stories - look at all the doctor shows (ER, Greys Anatomy, Scrubs, House), the medical novels (House of God, better, Body of Work, Doc, How Doctors think), and even medical jokes out there. We do share our lives with others.... but not at the sacrifice of a person. So we protect that individual (or should) That's what HIPPAA is all about. Protecting patient privacy. For example: Everyone knows about the ER doctor talking about the patient that came in with the light bulb up his/her ass... but hopefully you wouldn't know it was Mary Jane... you know ... that 19year old down the street... the one that had chlamydia - then it becomes gossiping about a person.
  18. I know it's toursity.... but I LOVE Epcots fireworks! Last time I saw them, it was raining, so I was looking up watching the bursts and feeling the impacts on my face! It felt AMAZING! (but then again, I really like Epcot... and really like fireworks.... OOOOOHHHHHHH and if you do do Epcot, make sure that you get the fast pass and do Soarin!!!!!) -one thing NOT to do.... a tour of Zephyr Hills OR. It was ok... but not something that I would recommend for a vacation.

    Pain

    Demerol is your friend. Nah... Demerol sucks. Nasty nausea... the active metabolites last too long. VERSED! Cuz the amnesic effect helps with not just the pain... but the MEMORY of the pain as well!
  20. Thank you! I've been thinking rather outside the box lately. Ummmm..... "Hi. I'm Karen"
  21. You shut your mouth How can you say I go about things the wrong way? I am human and I need to be loved Just like everybody else does I actually have that song on my Ipod!! (I LOVED Charmed when it was on) New thoughts: Who are you? And what does that question mean to you? Is it a request for knowledge? Is it a deeper question? Do you label yourself by location? ("I'm a Wisconsinite." "I'm an American") How about ethnicity or descent? ("I'm Irish.") Do you consider yourself to be your occupation? ("I'm a Doctor") Do you describe yourself as your hobbies ("I'm a skydiver") I tend to just use my given name... but who are you?
  22. Nope.... we have learned that. -and when you "get" my humor, it makes it harder to maintain my personal issues of annoyance. Lets keep the debates to medicine where I can maintain my righteous indignation (I am just kidding.... m'kay? )
