Cease and desist

It has come to our attention that a couple of residents at another New York hospital, totally unrelated to our own, have found this blog and are now under the impression that their three German medstudents on surgical and ER rotations are in any way affiliated with the authors of this blog. Could this be any more far-fetched?

But considering those three may get into trouble for what we write here, we will have to refrain from any further mockery, trashing and badmouthing of residents and attendings until the good folks at that other Bronx hospital realize we're not talking about them.

In other news, TAFKAVG (who still desperately needs another nickname) arrived today. She had to face difficulties with the immigration forms and also has some stories to tell about the flight, but I'll let her tell that herself if she likes to. Right now she's sleeping in Phèdre's former bed, not having slept much before the flight and with it being 6am on her clock now and all. Since I also slept less than four hours in order to get her from the airport, I'm thinking about doing the same. Then again, the next shift starts in 23 hours, so I don't want to be messing things up by sleeping now. Hmmm.

Remember the cute resident who was advising us on nightlife in Manhattan? She just returned from her neurosurg rotation and is going to take us out on Sunday, since we're all off on Sunday night. We do all have to work on Monday morning (skriehma and I are back to days then). Shouldn't be a problem though, since we work until 7am on Sunday, we'll go to sleep around noon, wake up to relieve our hypoethanolemia and let the booze wear off a bit (or not..) before going to our shifts. Not sure what Phèdre is going to do. Bronx attendings on Monday, bear in mind we're probably not talking about the German students in YOUR hospital here.

On to the obituaries - Greg died. Autopsy results are still pending, but he suddenly became paraplegic and expired shortly thereafter. Resuscitation was not attempted due to a DNR order, Gregs remains were later consumed by his littermates leaving only the tail and a few patches of fur, making the coroner's job exceedingly difficult. The DA was called and Michelle and Del are now awaiting trial for obstruction of justice.

Not to worry though, skriehma tells me more non-confined quadruped vermin has been sighted roaming the appartment.
