Man...today was a day for the ages. Shit happened, but I had a blast doing it. I helped with 2 circumcisions today. It was actually really pathetic. I became really faint and nauseous and almost passed out while they were performing the circumcision. While prepping the 2nd baby for circumcision, I had to change the baby's diaper because it had pooped itself. When i lifted the baby's legs with my hand to slide another diaper under, the baby let loose with some foul green diarrhea all over my tie, shirt and pants. Suffice it to say that things went directly into the trash despite my attending's insistence that dry cleaning would get all the shit right out. Whatever dude.
On a sidenote, I don't know what is wrong with me. I've developed crushes on all of my residents and a member of the nursing staff already. Something about working in the nursery makes me all warm and fuzzy and loving inside. Sunday is my last day. It makes me sad.
