Another slight wrinkle in the plans

[cjsmith]

I was informed last night in no uncertain terms that if I become a veterinarian, in fact beginning from the moment I become a veterinary student, I am not to come home and discuss "What I Did Today" with rfrench. He doesn't even want to hear a highly-edited-and-sanitized verbal description of a picture in that sports medicine book.

*big dramatic sigh*

[In the spirit of full disclosure I must admit I keep looking at some of those photos in an attempt to wear down my OH NO ICK YIKES reaction.]

All mad cackles aside, I actually would. I need to get over this. :-/

Just call - I'll tell you about the hanging foot, the maggots in the knee, the use of medical leeches, the man with half a face, the woman with paper thin skin that tore every time she moved... Where would you like to start? :-)

I've seen pictures of medical leeches in use and have heard a couple half-a-face stories, so any of the others would be great.

I've got a long way to go, and I honestly do wonder if there's any way to speed this up. To toughen up my tummy for flying aerobatics, I used to sit upside down hanging off the couch, read and twist and bend while being driven on curvy roads, and the like. I don't know if there's a crash course for this one though.
