Oh, Spleen

- Submitted by Black Market Beagle

I FOUND MY NEW RINGTONE

Here’s a sample:

Listen to

Is that incredible or what? It’s like Cat Stevens, only with better lyrics.

Now, I’m only giving you a little taste, because this is worth your money, and I think you know that. I laid down my coin and purchased this entire album a few minutes ago, and if you don’t think this is going on my New Year’s Eve playlist, YOU AREN’T PAYING ATTENTION

          In my case, the left ovary stays but the right ovary went off to Incinerator, Organ to be with my husband’s left kidney. I wish my left ovary had gone off with my right ovary to have a menage a trois with hub’s left kidney. Maybe then I wouldn’t be such a bitch! (Or so I’m told.)

            My right ovary went when I was 37 and it tried to kill me. The left one and my uterus joined it 18 months later. I wish my doctor had been less conservative the first time; I went through a lot of unnecessary pain and trouble because of it, including a hospital stay for a hemiplegic migraine, which mimics a stroke and can only be differentiated from one by an assload of tests. Fun!

            Kimoutre, I feel for you with the hemiplegic migraine. I have them seriously all the time, about every 6 weeks. Insurance has never wanted to pony up the cost for the testing so officially I’m undiagnosed and just explain to folks I have a type of seizure disorder cause I’m too damn lazy to actually explain it out.

          @alter-mimi: I’m genuinely bummed when another nurse is burnt out by the profession. God knows that the secret foundation of nursing is passive-aggressive gonad busting. But I hate to see you flounce from a profession where there are so many options, including IT Nurse Geek, Sales Weasal, Call Center Sub-human nurse, and (my favorite) Wal-Mart immunization greeter. :D

            My sister finished one semester of Nursing School, then ran away from home to get married. She went to work as an NA, went ahead and got her LVN, and then her RN. She’s 71, still working, and by our best estimates has been working for probably close to 40+ years, with brief periods taken off to have her two daughters.

            Every year, we ask her when she’s going to quit working, and every year she just laughs. And she’s still working 3-4 10 hour days a week. She just honestly loves her job, and she’s been working so long, I don’t think she’d know what to do if she WASN’T working.

          I knew a nurse once who was similarly burnt-out. She began her own business consulting for lawyers in accident & malpractice suits. She used her knowledge to read through and interpret all kinds of medical records for the shysters to build their cases. She made great money – and found she loved it to boot. Maybe you could consider something similar?

        When I learned it in high school from an ex-nun it was “a Finn and German viewed some hops”. When I re-learned it in medical school it was “Oh, Oh, Oh, to touch and feel a girl’s vagina, ah, heaven.” We made up others as well – “Two Zebras bit my cock” (officially “to Zanzibar by motorcar”) for the branches of the trigeminal nerve. “Never lower Tillie’s pants, mother might come home” for the carpal bones. And my personal favorite – “Suddenly I insisted gleefully that Linda fellate our Labrador” for the lumbar plexus (although I can’t figure out what the suddenly was supposed to stand for).

      My anat/phys/micro sequence was cataloged as “Nursing Science”. They crammed three semester courses into two. They’ve since replaced it with requiring the real Anat/Phys and Micro courses because of the number of exploding heads.

      Being an old fart, I learned my SSN the traditional way: filling out college forms in the pre-computer era. I’ve never forgotten it. I forget all kinds of more recent shit, and fibromyalgia has given me this lovely effect where now I mix up numbers dyslexic-style, but things that got engraved in my brain a long time ago, like my social, I have no trouble with. So I guess my advice is to write it a shitload of times and you’ll have it!
