my proudest achievement

today at the hospital i got to shoot lidocaine into a patient's chest, cut into it with a scalpel, and then squeeze all the pus out. it was the greatest thing i'd done all day until i ate ribs for lunch and didn't spill any bbq sauce on my white coat or shirt or tie or pants. all in all, obviously, a great day.

Good grief! I wiped two snotty noses today. Does that count as achievement for the day?

this is the most beautiful display of lyrical irreverence i have ever read.
